Dear list,

I have done some more reading through documentations after my last
post to this list about the strange loss if user login data on my
auth server.

I am now able to pin down the problem to keyfs. I have started over
by

- overwriting my nvram with bla
- truncating the /adm/keys file with echo '' > /adm/keys
- rebooting, filling in password and secstore phrase
- killing keyfs
- starting auth/keyfs on the server console
- creating new keys with auth/changeuser for bootes and another user
- rebooting

After that I am able to log in as bootes but not the other user (the
user is present on the fossil filesystem)

When I now kill/restart keyfs on the server keyfs prints the
following warnings:
% auth/keyfs
keyfs: warning: bad status in key file
keyfs: warning: bad status in key file
keyfs: warning: bad status in key file
4 keys read

1. Shouldn't there be only 2 keys as I have added 2 users?
2. When trying to auth/debug the user login still fails
3. lc /mnt/keys displays garbage

Any hints?

Yours,

Christian
