[AOLSERVER] Uid/Gid question in nsmain.c

2002-12-24 Thread Tom Jackson
I'm looking at nsmain.c for the fun of it on Christmas Eve. I don't understand the difference in the code between the gid and the uid. It seems like the gid has to be less than zero before it is converted to an int using atoi. Then it is compared to zero. In the uid case, the uid is always

The root of what's going on here is that both uarg and garg MAY be a username string or a groupname string. If a username was supplied in uarg, then the name is translated to an int. Also, a username will also yield a groupid (Ns_GetUserGid). If it wasn't a name, Ns_GetUid returns -1, and the code

Re: [AOLSERVER] 3.5.1 no response from webserver and only one nsd process

2002-12-24 Thread Nate Haggard
So far things look good. The server continues to respond even after being up for 12+ hours. It used to stop responding after a day or so. There is still only one nsd process running. Should there only be one nsd process when I am running mulptiple threads?! I am used to having a seperate

Using garg, the gid is obtained. If this is less than zero, it is possible that a group number was provided on the command line. This is converted to an int with atoi. Only if the garg didn't correspond to a gid is the gid then tested to see if it is the root group (gid == 0), or as Jim said, atoi

What OS are you running on? I believe the more recent versions of Linux have stopped showing multiple threads as separate entries in ps by default. Try doing a 'ps -eafm'. The 'm' tells it to show threads. /s. --- Scott S.

[AOLSERVER] new result module

2002-12-24 Thread Brett Schwarz
I was messing around writing a small module that retrieved results differently than the standard way that AS does. I believe that it is quite a bit quicker than the standard way (i.e. ns_set), but this is the first time that I have written anything for AS at the C level, so I am not sure if I am

Brett, I think you would have to factor in the problem of parsing the attribute name out of the array element name, plus you can't easily search for an element by name either. Ns_set supports mulitple attributes with the same name, as well as attribute order. Arrays mess up the order, that is why

If it is decided that the group command line switch should work, it look like we need a way of checking if a user is in a group before setting the group. I started playing around with this. It doesn't look like the AOLserver C API has the right group functions. It looks like the grp.h file would
