Haugh II) Newsgroups: alt.sources Subject: Shadow login release 2 (Part 0 of 3) Message-ID: <16677@rpp386.Dallas.TX.US> Date: 20 Jun 89 06:45:41 GMT Followup-To: alt.sources.d Distribution: alt Organization: River Parishes Programming, Plano TX Lines: 29 X-Archive-Name: shadow2/part0 The next three articles, hopefully, should constitute the beta release of the second version of my shadow login implementation. The previous version is executing on approximately 200 machines of a dozen or more configurations. All known bugs have been corrected and a number of features have been added. Please read config.h and README for details. Minor anomolies exist in the handling of subsystem logins [ I don't know exactly how they should work for the different systems ]. Also, Altos and UNIX-PCs have some serious problems. Down with bogus UNIX implementations! Major changes include the addition of some BSD code. This still needs much work. The handling of dialup password, console restriction, and general password failure is now more standardized. I would like someone to add code to handle remote logins. This code is presently in use on this system. Most all of the options have been turned on. Problems may arise if you use some combination of flags I haven't considered. Please tell me your configuration when reporting bugs. -- John F.
