|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Ar clientName
|
|
.Ar serverName
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility creates scrambled passwords for the
|
|
.Nm CVSup
|
|
server's authentication database. It is invoked with a client name
|
|
and a server name.
|
|
.Ar ClientName
|
|
is the name the client uses to gain access to the
|
|
server. By convention, e-mail addresses are used for all client
|
|
names, e.g.,
|
|
.Ql BillyJoe@FreeBSD.org .
|
|
Client names are case-insensitive.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ar ServerName
|
|
is the name of the
|
|
.Nm CVSup
|
|
server which the client wishes to access. By convention,
|
|
it is the canonical fully-qualified domain name of the server, e.g.,
|
|
.Ql CVSup.FreeBSD.ORG .
|
|
This must agree with the server's own idea of its name. The name is
|
|
case-insensitive.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To set up authentication for a given server, one must perform the
|
|
following steps:
|
|
.Bl -enum
|
|
.It
|
|
Obtain the official
|
|
.Ar serverName
|
|
from the administrator of the server or from some other source.
|
|
.It
|
|
Choose an appropriate
|
|
.Ar clientName .
|
|
It should be in the form of a valid e-mail address, to make it easy
|
|
for the server administrator to contact the user if necessary.
|
|
.It
|
|
Choose an arbitrary secret
|
|
.Ar password .
|
|
.It
|
|
Run
|
|
.Nm cpasswd ,
|
|
and type in the
|
|
.Ar password
|
|
when prompted for it. The utility will print out a line to send
|
|
to the server administrator, and instruct you how to modify your
|
|
.Li $ Ns Ev HOME Ns Pa /.csup/auth
|
|
file. You should use a secure channel to send the line to the
|
|
server administrator.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Since
|
|
.Li $ Ns Ev HOME Ns Pa /.csup/auth
|
|
contains passwords, you should ensure that it is not readable by
|
|
anyone except yourself.
