Rodney uses a modified version of the
integrated login which performs the kinit and aklog steps in an external process instead of relying on the k4 support built into OpenAFS. More than likely he is bypassing the cause of the blue screen. Jeffrey Altman ted creedon wrote: 1. It's the only blue screen in 4 years on a 2K server. But perhaps you're right. 2. Your technical paper is excellent. Which brings up the next point: 3. The official documentation needs some serious upgrading.tedc -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Rodney M Dyer Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2004 9:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [OpenAFS] OpenAFS + Linux +XP At 11:30 AM 1/22/2004, Eggert, Richard W, II (Rich), GVSOL wrote: I find the integrated login to be very unstable (it causes blue screen of death and random reboots sometimes), so I don't use it. Then again, I'm the only person using my cell (with multiple accounts), so I can do things however I want to. Well I know this isn't right. We've got well over 500 XP-SP1 machines of all various flavors of processor and ram/disk sizes from Dell and Gateway. I've never once got a blue screen because of integrated logon. We've been running both Transarc (years) and OpenAFS (during the last year) without integrated logon problems. You must be having other problems with your systems. The best way to handle multiple accounts on XP workstations is to go ahead and do things right the first time by creating a proper MS AD domain. You will save yourself lots of grief this way. Then, just create a script on the AD server that syncronizes AD accounts with your unix password file. Note that our AD accounts have random passwords that the user's don't know. The AD is setup to trust the MIT K5 kdc credentials using cross realm authentication.
