Hi ,all I have a problem when I read the souce code of authenticator component in the nox classic. The page https://github.com/noxrepo/nox-classic/wiki/Authenticator said the authenticator application keeps an in-memory record of all authenticated hosts and users in the network, indexed on network location. But the source code of authenticator and it's dependencies are so complex. The authenticator has severa dependicies: "dependencies": [ "flow_util", "user_event_log", "datatypes", "data_cache", "bindings_storage", "routing_module" ] 1.) I want to know what do the dependencies do .It seems that the user_event_log ,datatypes, data_cache and binding_storage provide interfaces to query,add,remove and update data. Who can tell me what the dependencies do exaclty ? I will be appreciated it if someone could help me . 2.)The storagebakend and storage_common are user_event_log's denpendicies, located in src/nox/netapps/storage , but I could not find compnents name storagebakend or storage_common. 3.)By the way ,I saw class DHT in Dht_impl.hh and Dht_impl.cc? Does DHT mean Distributed Hash Table? Does the data was stored in local ?? 4.??Are the user_event_log ,datatypes, data_cache and binding_storage neccessary ? If I want to store the data in other way ,is it OK ? I'll appreciated it if anybody could give me some suggestion . regards, ZhangJin
