While installing a new CPU server today I managed to botch setting up the auth server side of things. Having tried a couple of things unsuccessfully I would like to just blow away everything auth-server related and start again. Does anyone have a cookbook recipe for doing this, or will it be easier to just reinstall the server from scratch?

And regarding the install ... following the wiki instructions on adding auth support to a cpu server, it seems necessary to add bootes to the adm group, else auth/changeuser fails with permission denied errors on files in /adm. Did I miss something along the way, or is the wiki out of date. (Sorry, but I'm at home right now, so I can't reproduce the exact error messages.) I ended up adding bootes to the adm group, which let me complete the setup, but I never did get auth working properly. I'll try again tomorrow with a clean installation I guess.

Things sure have changed since 3rd edition :-)
