Re: [osol-discuss] Anonymous NFS file permissions
So I turned the machine off for a month when I was out of town. I started everything up, and now I have the same permissions problem I had before---but the option of 'anon=0' is still there (see above description)!?! Does anyone have an idea what might be going wrong? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Build 134 was the last released build of the OpenSolaris distribution by Oracle, which is now Solaris 11 Express. Aside from no longer releasing OpenSolaris builds, the main change by Oracle was that development of the core OS/Net consolidation ceased to be public shortly after build 147. The illumos Project has forked the post-147 ON to create a community-maintained version of the core software. The OpenIndiana distribution, which is a direct upgrade path from OpenSolaris, is built on the post-147 source and expected to be based on illumos in the future. Oracle Solaris 11 Express is expected soon, which is likely to be a respin of build 151. -Alhert ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Re: [osol-discuss] Changing Username Default Length from 8 to 32 or more

[b]Could you please how can I create a new username (numbers based) eg. -?[/b] please let me know, I'll apretiate your kindly help!!! bergmp at gmail dot com Accounts can be created with the useradd command. Limits on the username are listed in passwd(4): http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2251/passwd-4?l=ena=view The format you desire exceeds the recommendations, if not the absolute limits, on both length and characters used. That said, _most_ software will probably work anyway with anything 32 characters or less (and not permitting colon or newline characters within the username), but older software (or software that exchanges the information with other systems) may not. Some older programs may assume that /usr/include/stdio.h:#defineL_cuserid 9 could specify the size of an array of characters (including null terminator) sufficient to hold a username. Some older systems may assume that if an all upper-case username is entered, the terminal being used is unable to generate lower-case letters, and will therefore enable a conversion of all upper-case letters to lower-case letters when entered during that login session. This will usually prevent even getting logged in (since the username and password will no longer be an exact match). However much you may desire something that exceeds both the requirements and the suggested limits given in passwd(4), your best results will be achieved by fully complying with both. There is no single action that will adjust that, except that if you have programs of your own, some of them might need to be changed to exceed the 8 character limit. This is not an extreme limit. Other systems in the past have had similar limits, or even more restrictive ones. At one time, usernames on certain mainframes were limited to 7 characters (their limit has now gone up to 8). At least one real-time system (Harris VOS) allowed usernames that were _either_ at most six alphanumeric characters _or_ a number (with no punctuation) of a few more digits - that related to the unusual word length on the systems that ran VOS. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Since the maximum user ID is 2147483647 and your desired usernames are going to be numerical, depending on what you're doing may be able to use UIDs directly and have some arbitrary string generated from the UIDs for usernames. If you are actually interested in the technical problems that increasing the username limit would face, see: http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=481943 -Albert ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
