[9fans] authentication with telnet

[9fans] authentication with telnet

[vecera]

When I use telnet to login to my CPU server
and create a file his owner is 'none' user.
I expect that if I answer chalenge+responde
dialog I get my user id.
Why not?

Look /adm/users
and confirm your ID is registered.

I think my user account is setup correctly.
My login name is in /adm/users and password is set.
When I telnet or ftp to cpu server and
run 'who' command I see that I am logged in.
BUT I have rights of user 'none' ! Why???

ok, the deal is, as i understand it is that yer
not really auth'd.  i could and may well be wrong,
but 9P is a long way from telnet.

Thanks. Now it works. I am happy. :-)

PS: I think in case
when I forgot to permit access in /lib/ndb/auth the AS should
kick mi out and NOT give mi access rights of user 'none' - allow me
log in and browse.

By having the rights of 'none' do you mean that you
once telnet'd in you cannot create files as yourself?
What is the hostowner (authid, contents of /dev/hostowner,
users that appears when you 'ls -l '#c') of the cpu server?
He needs to have rights to 'speak for' you for this to work.

For example, our systems run with the hostowner 'bootes'.  On
the auth server is the file /lib/ndb/auth with the contents:

hostid=bootes
	uid=!sys uid=!adm uid=*

which means that bootes can speak for anyone except sys and adm.
You'll need something similar.
