I have a solution that's perhaps broken but works. Each user's Coda password is long, random, and assigned automatically. I use dd if=/dev/urandom bs=45 count=1 | uuencode temp | egrep -e '^M' > /usr/local/lib/coda-auth/$user It's stored in clear text in a file called /usr/local/lib/coda-auth/$user, which is owned by $user and is mode 600. A cron script is run to assign tokens: for u in `ls /usr/local/lib/coda-auth` do echo "Setting token for " $u; fn=`echo "/usr/local/lib/coda-auth/$u" | sed -e 's/ //g'` su -c "clog $u < $fn" - $u; done That script is also run on restart of venus. Hope this is useful. Bill GribbleReceived on 1999-07-24 18:35:49
