This is the initial conversion of the AFS Adminstrators Reference into POD for use as man pages. The man pages are now generated via pod2man from regen.sh so that only those working from CVS have to have pod2man available. The Makefile only installs. The pages have also been sorted out into pod1, pod5, and pod8 directories, making conversion to the right section of man page easier without maintaining a separate list and allowing for names to be duplicated between pod5 and pod1 or pod8 (which will likely be needed in a few cases). This reconversion is done with a new script based on work by Chas Williams. In some cases, the output is worse than the previous POD pages, but this is a more comprehensive conversion. This is only the first step, and this initial conversion has various problems. In addition, the file man pages that didn't have simple names have not been converted in this pass and will be added later. Some of the man pages have syntax problems and all of them have formatting errors. The next editing pass, coming shortly, will clean up most of the remaining mess.

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.
