Hi
I'm trying to set up a FreeBSD 1.0e system as a SLIP server. I have an
/etc/hosts containing
Sfoo `hostname` foo 255.255.255.224
^^^ |
SLIP account ^^^
my server machine's netmask
And a /etc/slip.login.foo containing
ifconfig sl0 196.6.19.69 196.6.19.70 netmask 255.255.255.224 broadcast
196.7.19.255
My /etc/passwd runs /usr/sbin/sliplogin when Sfoo logs in. However,
whenever I log in, I get the message:
access denied - no login file
and in /var/log/messages:
cybernet -sliplogin[procnum]: access denied for Sfoo - no
/etc/slip.login
I've also tried this with a /etc/slip.login file, same errors occur.
Can anyone help me out by pointing out what I've done wrong?
Thanks,
Peter
