Hi,
First, sorry for my english. I found some problem
cfservd.c hanging when running with no-root user and
cfagent, with other too:
cfagent - user x (remote copy file x.x from cfservd)
cfservd (other machine) - user xx
when cfagent try download x.x from cfservd and the
permission are not read for 'others' cfservd (or
cfagent) hang with the following meesage:
"Caller x is not the owner of the file"
and then hang.
i found in the cfservd.c code that the error is never
sent to the client, so that line is incorrect
(probably the call to 'RefuseAccess') :
(...)
Debug("Caller %s is not the owner of the
file\n",(args->connect)->username);
!
RefuseAccess(args->connect,sendbuffer,args->buf_size,"");
return;
(...)
so the patch i made is :
*** cfengine-2.2.1/src/cfservd.c Wed Apr 4
02:42:17 2007
--- cfengine-2.2.1/src/cfservd.c.new Wed Sep 12
11:51:01 2007
***************
*** 2851,2857 ****
else
{
Debug("Caller %s is not the owner of the
file\n",(args->connect)->username);
!
RefuseAccess(args->connect,sendbuffer,args->buf_size,"");
return;
}
}
--- 2851,2862 ----
else
{
Debug("Caller %s is not the owner of the
file\n",(args->connect)->username);
! //
RefuseAccess(args->connect,sendbuffer,args->buf_size,"");
! snprintf(sendbuffer,CF_BUFSIZE,"Open error
of file [%s]\n",filename);
! CfLog(cferror,sendbuffer,"open");
!
snprintf(sendbuffer,CF_BUFSIZE,"%s",CF_FAILEDSTR);
!
SendSocketStream(sd,sendbuffer,args->buf_size,0);
!
return;
}
}
So, when the file is requested from cfagent, cfservd
report the error and the remote cfagent can continue
downloading other files or exit.
hugs
