Subject: BUG in /sys/src/libauth/getchal.c
Date: Wed, 16 Aug 1995 02:01:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19950816060115.CqSQeDtDyGgOoXG1VkVeUqeSqSPD5JFUREHzW9d05bw@z> (raw)


Hi -- error handling in getchal/chalreply routines
was broken.  If one of file descriptors was wrong
close() overwrites error string.

The new code which produces correct error string
is appended.
