I have a solution that's perhaps broken but works.
Each user's Coda password is long, random, and assigned automatically.
I use
dd if=/dev/urandom bs=45 count=1 | uuencode temp | egrep -e '^M' >
/usr/local/lib/coda-auth/$user
It's stored in clear text in a file called /usr/local/lib/coda-auth/$user,
which is owned by $user and is mode 600.
A cron script is run to assign tokens:
for u in `ls /usr/local/lib/coda-auth`
do
echo "Setting token for " $u;
fn=`echo "/usr/local/lib/coda-auth/$u" | sed -e 's/ //g'`
su -c "clog $u < $fn" - $u;
done
That script is also run on restart of venus.
Hope this is useful.
