Yes/no... It's an "anonymous user", but it's still a connection that you established with your password.
i.e. map to //host/username, then to //host/public, where public is a guest accessible share. Also, it doesn't appear this is completely reliable behavior, as I can reproduce it sometimes, but not others. (Not sure 100% what causes the setgroups() to be issued, it doesn't get issued in all cases.) I just figured that this behavior is different than all the other initgroups/setgroups behaviors. They both maintain the pag for all cases other than the empty-group-list case. If it passes a list of groups - i.e. if 'nobody' had some aux groups, it would maintain the pag. -- Nathan ------------------------------------------------------------ Nathan Neulinger EMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Missouri - Rolla Phone: (573) 341-4841 Computing Services Fax: (573) 341-4216 > -----Original Message----- > From: chas williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2002 11:10 AM > To: Neulinger, Nathan > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [OpenAFS-devel] interesting issue with setgroups > wrapper... > > > In message > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,"Neulinge > r, Nathan" writes: > >Not between multiple users, between the user, and anonymous > >non-user-based connections on the same smb session.
