re: eklogin. I've not hacked on it much---I use ktelnet which mostly works
just fine.
See the athena/kerberos stuff in the sipb/project/netbsd/dev area for
the sources to the eklgin & friends we're running. The login.krb comes
from the ktelnet area.
In other news, I'm out of town for 9 days starting tomorrow night, so
get by without me, and don't make too much of a mess of lola :)
Bill, you're welcome to track down the AFS that seems to randomly crash
the machine. Lola isn't running a ddb kernel since you can't get to ddb
if it enters while in X mode. I've tried some hackery in the pcvt
driver (see #if defined(DDB) && defined(LOLA)) code, but it doesn't
restore fonts right, and you have to switch to vt1 and back to vt0 to
get the video blanking turned back on.
There is a DDB kernel config paralleling the non-DDB one, feel free to
build there. The bug I think was more prevalent when in memcache mode.
Probably the best bet is to try and reproduce it without using X, or to
get the hackery code working to restore fonts, etc.
Enjoy!
