I apologize if this is not the right mailing list for this question. We are
running a small system which contains around 50 servers and workstations running
FreeBSD 2.2.6 (we are upgrading to 4.1 after the Christmas holidays), and we
have discovered that rmuser is not removing a user's at jobs. After removing a
user with rmuser, atq still shows the job in the queue, but with "???" as the
owner. I looked at the rmuser Perl script, and below is the "remove_at_jobs"
subroutine from this script.
sub remove_at_jobs {
local($login_name, $uid) = @_;
local($i, $owner, $found);
$found = 0;
opendir(ATDIR, $atjob_dir) || return;
while ($i = readdir(ATDIR)) {
next if $i eq '.';
next if $i eq '..';
next if $i eq '.lockfile';
$owner = (stat("$atjob_dir/$i"))[4]; # UID
if ($uid == $owner) {
if (!$found) {
print STDERR "Removing user's at jobs:";
$found = 1;
}
# Use atrm to remove the job
print STDERR " $i";
system('/usr/bin/atrm', $i);
}
}
closedir(ATDIR);
if ($found) {
print STDERR " done.\n";
}
}
The problem appears to be with the "system('/usr/bin/atrm', $i);" command. $i
is a filename, and the atrm command wants a job number, not a file name. Does
anyone know if this problem is fixed in 4.1?
Thank You
Mike
