- Quick docs for setting up an admit1 server,
-
- setup a gopherusers file, note that passwords are stored in the clear.
- (Ick!)
-
- Setup the appropriate line in gopherd.conf for secureusers
-
- Admit1 servers must run as root, and to really work must have the
- -u flag for the default access.
-
- Admit1 access method kicks in when the "-u user" can't access a certain
- directory. For instance do a "chmod 600 dir" to start it up.
-
- People then get the option of changing their uid so they can access
- the directory....
-
-
- Quick example:
-
- start up a server link this:
-
- # mkdir /home/gopher/PaulsStuff
- # chown lindner /home/gopher/PaulsStuff
- # chmod 600 /home/gopher/PaulsStuff
-
- # cat >/usr/local/etc/gopherusers
- lindner:mypass:0
- ^D
-
- # gopherd -c -u nobody /home/gopher 70
