Re: [9fans] strange things in /sys/log/auth

[andrey mirtchovski <mirtchov@cpsc.ucalgary.ca>]

well, it only has two users -- bootes and me, nobody else that I've added
appears there...

it must be said that the events i reported do not appear in the logs from
the very beginning. first it was a complaint about bootes' expire, then
another user appeared there, and then i got the corrupted strings...

the fact that the keys were just moved from a kfs server with all the other
data from the disk probably wouldn't have helped.

i'll follow dan's suggestion and reset everything once i can sit behind the
console...

ps: /mnt/keys of a cpu server:

kn9% ls -l /mnt/keys
d-r-xr-xr-x M 117 bootes sys 0 Jun  3 12:38 /mnt/keys/bootes
d-r-xr-xr-x M 117 bootes sys 0 Jun 24 09:13 /mnt/keys/andrey
