Did you set authdom in your ndb?

yup

Re: [9fans] Auth mess (i made it; u got a broom?)

[Don]

forget about it;
I'll read the code.
The CPU/Auth/FS combo worked perfect on 3rd Edition;
I included authdom properly and tried with/without
the factotum patches. I'll just have to take the
time.

Looks ok to me. Snow is the bootes equiv.

Actually, if you point to the right auth server, you should
be able to change it.  Unfortunately passwd doesn't let you
do that.  I'll fix it and stick a new passwd on the sources.

After suffering the mangling, rsc kindly changed my password there
to let me mount /n/sources. However, I can't change it using
passwd. I can keep on using the one rsc invented for me, but, is
there an easy way to let me change it?

thanks

I just tried one with the password !@#$%^&*().  It works fine.
When exactly did you find special characters not working?
I thought I'ld fixed before rsc's general announcement that
things were available.

one more thing -- make sure the password is weak (i.e.  contains no
non-alphanumeric characters).  they somehow get mangled during the
registration ( '!'  becomes %21 for example) and you will be unable to
login..


we found that out the hard way :)

Is the password mangling still happening?  I thought I fixed that
the first day.  I'll fix it ASAP.

as well as ensuring proper authdom entries, you should also
check that /lib/ndb/auth on the auth server has appropriate contents.
initiallly the file contains only a comment explaining how to set it up.

Heyas,
	Ok, I feel like a lamer askin this, but, I'm
going to have to suck in my pride `cause I don't have
time to read the new source.
	I have a CPU/Auth/FS running standalone on my
main server. Now, I've set up the exact auth stuff I
used for revision 3. I also used Forsyth's patch to
factotum. Still, none of my users can authenticate
to the CPU server externally. Am I missing something
because I have to load the server from its local KFS?
I'm probably not giving enough info here, though, I'm
doing this purposefully because those in the know will
be able to specify rather than me just blurting out a
ton of unnecessary info.
Thx in advance,
Don
