Content-Type: text/plain Date: Mon, 21 Sep 1998 13:24:50 PDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the last episode, Guy Helmer asked: You mentioned DES before, but to double-check, what are /usr/lib/libcrypt* linked to on your clients? They apparently should be linked to /usr/lib/libdescrypt*. I checked both the server and the client, and the listings are identical. The links are to libdescrypt.a, libdescrypt.so.2.0, and libdescrypt_p.a respectively. Also, I would think this type of thing is ruled out by the fact that I can successfully change any password on the server through the passwd utility on the client? And, what is the format of your magic cookie in /etc/master.passwd? Both are identical, to wit: +:*:::::::: Is this the right list for this kind of thing? Should I maybey cross post this to -hackers, or -isp? Also, does anyone actually have this working on 2.2.5? I know I've seen a LOT of troubles with it when I searched the archives, but no real solutions that I could see. Of course, I didn't see *this* problem there, so maybe it's just my wacky network? To repeat what I said last time: Help. Ohhhh Help....
