Subject: call back error


here is the info you requested for the "call back error":

wc -c /etc/auth/system/authorize:
        695 /etc/auth/system/authorize
wc -c /etc/auth/subsystems/users:
        533 /etc/auth/subsystems/users

wc -c /tcb/files/auth/*/*

the biggest file was:

        1829 /tcb/files/auth/r/root

Anytime a call is made that checks a user's authorization file
is when we get the error... also, the alpha fix of the libsecurity.so
file was great... it fixed the alpha's getting the error... let me know
what you need from me now.

	All the above is great! -- it means that they have not
	hit the "hard" limit of 10480 bytes.  This is what I
	needed to know to continue.

> Anytime a call is made that checks a user's authorization file
> is when we get the error... 

	Yes, that's the definition of when it happens.  But I need to 
	know exactly which _utilities_ they are running when they get 
	the error.  In other words, what commands are they entering
	when they see the message.

	(FYI: If they do not tell me, I'll have to build all the 
	utilities that call authorize_user().  That will take some 
	time (as in weeks).  If they tell me, I can do a handful 
	individually right away.  But if they don't, and they want 
	them all, then it will take weeks because it means either 
	1) a new system build, and I have to schedule Dave's time 
	for that, or 2) if I do it, it will be no more than one 
	or two or so a day, because I cannot spend all my time 
	rebuilding utilities.

	Sorry if I sound gruff, I'm in a bad mood.  I don't mean
	to take it out on you.)

	I guess I should just start the rebuilding and schedule 
	a V2.1 system rebuild anyway. Just trying to find out 
	from them how to save time is taking too much time...

Hi Tammy,

authorized_user (in libprot) in V2:

dxchdac
dxchlevel
XIsso
XSysAdmin
dxhostmanager
dxtp
reduce
passwd
pstat
rpc.yppasswdd
yppush
ypbind
ypserv

Single user mode:

icheck

newfs
icheck
mkfs
mt
uerf
dbck
dbck_mac
dbck_acl
tnet_dbck

That should do it... call me if you need anything else..

771.6or you can ask me to copy them somewhere more convenientSMURF::BATSegui la tua beatitudineMon Mar 31 1997 19:2917
    I rebuilt everything that calls authorized_user and created a 
    compressed tar file of the programs, and put it in:
    
    psycho:~ftp/mlsv2.1/callback
    
    You can anonymous ftp there and retrieve the files:
    
    Install.sh
    README_V2.1r91-2_patches
    V2.1r91-2_patches.tar.Z
    
    The compressed tar file is about 20MB.
    
    Let me know if/when TDS tries them out to see if it solves their problem.
    
    Thanks,
    BAT
