What happens:
athena% attach
Badly formatted entry in /usr/tmp/attachtab
athena% grep attachtab /etc/attach.conf
attachtab /etc/attachtab
What's wrong:
The attachtab isn't in /usr/tmp; it's in /etc.
What should happen:
Error messages should refer to the value of attachtab as set in
/etc/attach.conf (default /usr/tmp/attachtab), rather than always
referring to the default.
What needs to change:
The constant ATTACHTAB (the default value of attachtab_fn) is used
in three places where attachtab_fn should be used instead. Two of
them are in attachtab.c and one is in util.c. These should be
updated:
tisiphone% grep -n " ATTACHTAB" /source/athena/bin.athena/attach/*.c
attachtab.c:216: fprintf(stderr, "Bad version number in %s\n", ATTACHTAB);
attachtab.c:303: fprintf(stderr,"Badly formatted entry in %s\n", ATTACHTAB);
util.c:442: fprintf(stderr,"Can't open %s: %s\n", ATTACHTAB,
