Hello everyone,
i upgraded inn recenly (to latest cvsuped version of it)
and now seems like everyone can access my reader box, auth /w ckpasswd is
skipping and letting everyone in.
my ~news/etc/readers.conf looks something like this:
---
auth "default" {
# default is to allow no access
# hosts: "*"
# uncommenting this will pretend that the remote user is actually named
# "<no-user>", which will match the "ordinary" access group below by
<..skipped..>
}
auth "default" {
# Allow reading/posting from the local host.
hosts: "stdin,localhost,127.0.0.1"
default: "*"
default-domain: "cifnet.com"
}
auth "default" {
# everyone else
hosts: "*"
auth: "ckpasswd -f /usr/local/news/passwd/passwd-db"
}
# ordinary users
access "default" {
# users can read/post to all but our internal newsgroups.
users: "*"
newsgroups: "*,!internal.*"
access: "Read Post"
}
-------
I didn't make any major changes in readers.conf, all '{}' seems ok, no
errors when i ran inncheck, nothing unusual in news.notice/err,etc either,
ckpasswd is in ~news/bin/auth/passwd, i tried to change auth line
to 'auth: "ckpasswfera-some-crap -f ..."
still open server... skipped authecation, but when i commented out
auth line completely, i got "502 Could not get your access name. Goodbye."
error.
Anyone? Any help would be much appreciated! :)
