I just install the shadow password code from Berkeley on one of our
Vax 780's running 4.3-tahoe. When I did, the programs quot, finger,
find, and others broke. The programs would core dump and re-compiling
them determined that the common fault was an unresolved reference
to pw_stayopen. Looking at the sources on both a 4.3-tahoe with and
without the shadow passwords, I've been unable to find pw_stayopen on
either. My questions are where is pw_stayopen defined? And, Why
did shadow passwords eliminate it?
