Hranicky) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: Bug in the resolve libraries (again) Date: 25 Sep 1995 12:57:36 GMT Organization: Univ. of Florida CIS Dept. Lines: 25 Message-ID: <446900$lss@sand.cis.ufl.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: aviator.cis.ufl.edu Originator: jfh@aviator.cis.ufl.edu Ok...someone else (I can't remember who) did an "rsh bounce-bsd.cis.ufl.edu ls" and this time, it recognized exactly who they are, and reported that the user's login was unknown, printing the FQDN just fine. So, I went to another domain on campus, and tried the rsh as the "guest" account (which is disabled now, BTW), and _voila_, there was the FQDN in the logs. BUT, when I tried the rsh as "jfh" on the same domain, the same "jfh@ddr.arpa Permission denied" showed up. Apparently, this problem only shows up when the user on one machine does an rsh to the bsd machine and there exists an account with the same name on the bsd machine as on the machine they do the rsh. Anyone know what is the deal, or do I need to go climbing through the source...?? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Jim Hranicky, Systems Administrator | | Computer & Information Sciences & Engineering Department, Univ of Florida | | E314E CSE Building jfh@cis.ufl.edu Phone (904) 392-1057 | | http://www.cis.ufl.edu/~jfh | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
