Class rpcpass

java.lang.Object

  +--arlut.csd.ganymede.client.rpcpass

All Implemented Interfaces:

ClientListener

public class rpcpass

extends java.lang.Object

implements ClientListener

Command line application to update user account password, shell, and/or gecos information based on interaction with the rpc.yppasswdd daemon from the Linux NIS kit, versions 1.3.6.92 and above, using the -x option.

This client uses the ClientBase client stub for communications with the server.

This code should be considered quasi-deprecatd, because the NIS passwd daemon can't pass plaintext to Ganymede, making it useless for updating Samba, md5 or NT password hashes.

Field Summary

static java.lang.String	cryptedpass
static java.lang.String	gecos
private static arlut.csd.ganymede.client.ClientBase	my_client RMI object to handle getting us logged into the server, and to handle asynchronous callbacks from the server on our behalf.
static java.lang.String	oldpass
static int	registryPortProperty
static java.lang.String	rootname
static java.lang.String	serverHostProperty
static java.lang.String	shell
static java.lang.String	username

Constructor Summary

rpcpass()

Method Summary

void	disconnected(arlut.csd.ganymede.client.ClientEvent e) Called when the server forces a disconnect.
static boolean	loadProperties(java.lang.String filename) This method loads properties from the ganymede.properties file.
static void	main(java.lang.String[] argv)
void	messageReceived(arlut.csd.ganymede.client.ClientEvent e) Called when the ClientBase needs to report something to the client.

my_client

private static arlut.csd.ganymede.client.ClientBase my_client

RMI object to handle getting us logged into the server, and to handle asynchronous callbacks from the server on our behalf.

Constructor Detail

rpcpass

public rpcpass()

Method Detail

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] argv)

loadProperties

public static boolean loadProperties(java.lang.String filename)

This method loads properties from the ganymede.properties file.

This method is public so that loader code linked with the Ganymede server code can initialize the properties without going through Ganymede.main().

disconnected

public void disconnected(arlut.csd.ganymede.client.ClientEvent e)

Called when the server forces a disconnect.

Call getMessage() on the ClientEvent to get the reason for the disconnect.

Specified by:

disconnected in interface ClientListener

messageReceived

public void messageReceived(arlut.csd.ganymede.client.ClientEvent e)

Called when the ClientBase needs to report something to the client. The client is expected to then put up a dialog or do whatever else is appropriate.

Call getMessage() on the ClientEvent to get the reason for the disconnect.

Specified by:

messageReceived in interface ClientListener
