Well, some people want that! |
Ok, fair enough. But maybe there could be an optional flag in the configuration that disables blank passwords... I wouldn't want some imposter to start entering stuff under the username of another user, so it would be nice if I could have some way of forcing them to have a password, even if it's a one-letter password.
Thanks,
Dimitris |

The util library was added recently because of the new shell substitution functionaly, which requires the forkpty() function call. If you know in which library the forkpty is available on solaris, the makefile could be adjusted accordingly. If the forkpty is not available at all, we have to disable the shell substitution under solaris via conditional compilation. |

-- Ah, just looked at the docs, I see what that buys us. Surely there is a similar function available that is cross platform?

See the config manual and look for $shell |

Ok, I added an empty password check. If too many people will complain, I will make it a flag. |

That worked some time ago, but did not work currently. So I fixed that in the current SVN version. |

 | Steve Jones | steve.jones@freescale.com | Question | All | 2.6.1 | Work on PAM Support? |
Stefan (or any others):
Has anyone been seriously looking into building in PAM support in eLog? I ask because I have started reading the developer papers from Sun and looking at sample code.
Thanks
Steve |

Stefan, I found the following "forkpty()" replacement for running under Solaris. The URL is http://www.developerweb.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2990.
Perhaps this can be used unless someone comes up with a Solaris "util" library.
#ifdef SOLARIS /* Use the code in my_forkpty.c */
int my_forkpty (int *amaster, char *name, void *unused1, void *unused2);
#define forkpty my_forkpty
#endif

my_forkpty.c
-----------------------
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <sys/stream.h>
#include <sys/stropts.h>
/* fork_pty() remplacement for Solaris.
* This ignore the last two arguments
* for the moment
*/
int
my_forkpty (int *amaster,
char *name,
void *unused1,
void *unused2)
{
int master, slave;
char *slave_name;
pid_t pid;
master = open("/dev/ptmx", O_RDWR);
if (master < 0)
return -1;
if (grantpt (master) < 0)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
if (unlockpt (master) < 0)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
slave_name = ptsname (master);
if (slave_name == NULL)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
slave = open (slave_name, O_RDWR);
if (slave < 0)
{
close (master);
return -1;
}
if (ioctl (slave, I_PUSH, "ptem") < 0
|| ioctl (slave, I_PUSH, "ldterm") < 0)
{
close (slave);
close (master);
return -1;
}
if (amaster)
*amaster = master;
if (name)
strcpy (name, slave_name);
pid = fork ();
switch (pid)
{
case -1: /* Error */
return -1;
case 0: /* Child */
close (master);
dup2 (slave, STDIN_FILENO);
dup2 (slave, STDOUT_FILENO);
dup2 (slave, STDERR_FILENO);
return 0;
default: /* Parent */
close (slave);
return pid;
