Salve.
(In case of double-posting: apologies. I'm experimenting with my mail
server at this time, so there could be some strangeness. I'll try to keep
it contained.)
I'm trying to set up a news server with a public tree but otherwise private,
using /etc/shadow for authentication. The public tree works, but I cannot
get access to the other groups on the system even by providing a valid
username and password.
readers.conf:
auth "ue-staff" {
hosts: *
auth: "ckpasswd -s"
default: "<ue-staff>"
}
auth "world" {
hosts: *
default: "<world>"
}
access "ue-groups" {
users: "<ue-staff>@*"
newsgroups: "ue.*"
access: "RP"
}
access "all" {
users: "*"
newsgroups: "ue.pub.*"
access: "RP"
}
Relevant files:
-r-sr-sr-x 1 root root 7186 Jul 23 2002 ckpasswd
and
-r-------- 1 root root 937 Feb 1 11:18 shadow
What am I doing wrong?
Owen
