I was looking at this patch and noticed that SYSTEM_USER returns a "name", meaning that the value would be automatically truncated at 63 characters. We shouldn't imply that as authn_ids can be longer than that, and this issue gets a bit worse once with the auth_method appended to the string. +if (!$use_unix_sockets) +{ + plan skip_all => + "authentication tests cannot run without Unix-domain sockets"; +} Are you sure that !$use_unix_sockets is safe here? Could we have platforms where we use our port's getpeereid() with $use_unix_sockets works? That would cause the test to fail with ENOSYS. Hmm. Without being able to rely on HAVE_GETPEEREID, we could check for the error generated when the fallback implementation does not work, and skip the rest of the test. -- Michael
