When I am creating a new user (say guest) using auth/changeuser I could see
this message Ishwar mentioned:
keysfs: bad status key in file
But at least it creates the keyfile and creates the password ...
For already existant users (glenda, adm, sys etc ) I somehow lost keys at
some point (do not remember exactly how ...)
and now if I am trying to recreate keys for those users using
auth/changeuser - it fails with the error message:
changeuser: can't create user "such and such": access permission denied.
By the way, I do not have password set for those preexistant ones - how I
could set password for those ?
So, anyway, now I could reboot the system and log as guest with supplying
the password ...
Ok, I am looged in ...
Running auth/keyfs -p
Password: <such and such>
Works ...kind of ... but with the warning again: bad status in key file ...
Ok ... going further ...
aux/listen tcp
auth/listen -t /rc/bin/service.auth
No errors or warnings ...
Now I am starting the drawterm on my Solaris machine:
yarmouth$ drawterm -a 135.17.241.14 -c 135.17.241.14
default depth=8
yarmouth$ !!
drawterm -a 135.17.241.14 -c 135.17.241.14
default depth=8
The drawterm window shows up with user "none" - changing to guest ..
Supplying the password ...
Getting ...
?AS protocol botch: file does not exist.
Any hints ?
