kaserverauxdb - Records failed authentication attempts
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
The file kaserverauxdb records failed authentication attempts
|
||
|
for the local Authentication Server. The server creates it
|
||
|
automatically in the B</usr/afs/local> directory by default; use
|
||
|
the B<-localfiles> argument to the B<kaserver> command to
|
||
|
specify an alternate directory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The kaserverauxdb file is an internal database used by the
|
||
|
Authentication Server to prevent access by users who have exceeded the limit
|
||
|
on failed authentication attempts defined in their Authentication Database
|
||
|
entry. The Authentication Server refuses further attempts to
|
||
|
authenticate to an account listed in the database until either an AFS system
|
||
|
administrator issues the B<kas unlock> command to unlock the account,
|
||
|
or the timeout period defined in the user's Authentication Database entry
|
||
|
passes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The kaserverauxdb file is in binary format, so its contents are
|
||
|
not directly accessible. However, the output from the B<kas
|
||
|
examine> command reports an account's maximum number of failed
|
||
|
attempts, the lockout time, and whether the account is currently
|
||
|
locked.
