We're running zephyr on our department network which consists of
several subnets. We use multihomed SunOS 4.1.3 boxes to do the
routing. We have zephyr 2.0.2 installed (no kerberos, no hesiod) and
are having this problem:
thunder:~> nslookup thunder
Server: thunder-le1.cis.ufl.edu
Address: 128.227.176.1
Name: thunder.cis.ufl.edu
Addresses: 128.227.176.1, 128.227.224.5
thunder:~> zwgc
zwgc: Server could not verify authentication while setting location
From syslog:
Sep 4 16:46:46 sand.cis.ufl.edu zephyrd[29779]: sendit invalid
address: claimed 128.227.176.1, real 128.227.224.5
I looked at the sendit() code in server/dispatch.c to find where the
message was coming from. I found similar code in sendit in our
pre-2.0 zephyr source code, but we didn't have this problem with the
pre-2.0 installation.
Is anyone else having similar trouble? Any ideas how I can fix this
(short of rewriting sendit() to check against all know address for a
particular host)?
Thanks,
