similar to: NGROUPS_MAX

Linux has just raised the NGROUPS_MAX limit from 32 to 64k. In doing an audit of various tools, openssh turned up as having incorrect groups handling. Almost no user-space apps really care about NGROUPS_MAX. A proposed patch (untested, since the CVS build won't compile on my RH box.. :-/) : What think? Index: uidswap.c ===================================================================

I am enclosing a context diff of the changes that I made to get openssh working on UWIN. UWIN is a UNIX operating system layer that runs on Win32 systems. For more information on UWIN go to http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/. I also ran configure using -with-cppflags=-D_BSDCOMP=2. I don't know where that information would go with the source code. Let me know if you need more

Ok, for those running NeXT and other platforms with broken/missing _POSIX_SAVED_ID please try this patch, and anyone that has spent any amount of time dealing with this problem. I believe it's right. BTW, this patch is no where near as big as it looks. The patch was done against an earily version of the tree which had an issue with white space. - Ben --- ../openssh/uidswap.c Sun Apr 22

Hi All. While wandering in auth-pam.c I noticed that there's a few Portable-specific escapees from the xmalloc(foo * bar) cleanup. There's also a "probably can't happen" integer overflow in ssh-rand-helper.c with the memset: num_cmds = 64; - entcmd = xmalloc(num_cmds * sizeof(entropy_cmd_t)); + entcmd = xcalloc(num_cmds, sizeof(entropy_cmd_t));

If we can get people to test their platforms against the last snapshot/cvs tree I'd be greatful. (http://www.openssh.com/portable.html) I know NeXT platform has problems. I'm going to spend tonight looking at it. Also, take a moment to see what manpage type ./configure decided for your system and if it's 'cat' please let us know. Thanks. - Ben

Hello Porters, I've finally (thanks to Wendy Palm of Cray) ported OpenSSH to Dynix v4.4.4. I had to make sure that "UseLogin" was set to "no" in the sshd_config file. Also, here are the old-style contextual diffs (obtained with 'diff -c' on the Dynix box) of the two files I had to change: *** configure Sat Jun 16 17:09:50 2001 --- configure.new Mon Oct 8

Currently samba (2.0.6) relies on the NGROUPS_MAX define. This makes the number of allowed simultaneous (per-user) secondary groups a compile-time decision. $ find . -name \*.c | xargs grep NGROUPS ./source/lib/system.c: if (setlen > NGROUPS_MAX) { ./source/lib/replace.c: gid_t grouplst[NGROUPS_MAX]; ./source/lib/replace.c: while (i < NGROUPS_MAX &&

Hello, is it possible to setup a model/table schema like this: Groupable --> Membership <-- Group ^ ^ | | User UserGroup I tried the following but failed: Groupable (table with ''type'' column) has_many :memberships, :as => :groupable has_many :groups, :through => :memberships

Lets say I have 3 models, user, user_group and user_group_nodes. A normal user has one user_group_id as a foreign key and a special user has multiple user_groups which are defined in the user_group_nodes. The user_group_nodes is a "acts_as_list" for user and contains a list of group_ids. When I build a form to get user input and I want to save it, is there a way to validate the

so I am trying to sum month over month the amount that a user has posted. So for example: User 1: Jan $3000 Feb $4000 March $1500, etc. I can get this to work if I sum totals (aggregate of all users) but just not by user. Here is my code in the controller: def index @users = User.find :all, :order => ''name ASC'' @deal_groups = Deal.find(:all).group_by {|t|

Hi All, I''m trying to serve some XML from my Rails 2.0 server. I have a Flash file that always reads its configuration from /home/gallery.xml So, I would like to build the contents from the database and serve it back to the flash file when it hits my xml url. If it was HTML that it was asking for then in my home controller I have a gallery method that serves back a gallery.html.erb

A long time ago, and I could be mistaken, I thought samba could be configured so that instead of a smbd process per user/machine it would spawn a process per share/user/machine. If it still can, could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks! Weldon Godfrey Sr. Systems Specialist Science Applications International Corporation
