This completes the first editing pass of the man pages. Very little content editing has been done, but the server and client versions of various man pages have been combined into a single man page for the file (affects CellServDB, ThisCell, NetInfo, and NetRestrict), the descriptions of the various AFS cache files have been combined into one afs_cache man page, and the descriptions of the two butc log files have been combined into one butc_logs man page. For man pages for databases with two files, symlinks are now created on installation for the secondary file name. All of the man pages should now be ready for public review, additional editing and cleanup, and content editing.

kaserverauxdb - Records failed authentication attempts
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The file F<kaserverauxdb> records failed authentication attempts for the
|
|
local Authentication Server. The server creates it automatically in the
|
|
F</usr/afs/local> directory by default; use the B<-localfiles> argument to
|
|
the B<kaserver> command to specify an alternate directory.
|
|
|
|
The F<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 F<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.
