I finally got slash 2.0 installed and running (mostly) on my OpenBSD 2.9 system, but there's one problem (that I've found so far). Passwords don't get mailed out. It still sends admin mail (at least it did the first time I managed to get slashd to run), but no passwords. It happens both with new users and when you use the "mailpasswd" button on the login page. Here is the message after the "mailpasswd" button is pressed: retrying in 1 seconds... Passwd for aragorn_test was just emailed. There is nothing that I can find in any logs (either slash or sendmail) about it, so it doesn't look like it's even getting as far as local sendmail. Also, the slash script to start slashd doesn't work. su seems to barf with something about /nonexistent. It also didn't get installed anywhere (probably because this is a BSD system and doesn't have a /etc/init.d directory. I just started slashd with: ./slashd <virtual user> & It seems to work okay (except for that email thing). Finally, is there any good way to delete users? Preferably without just going straight into the database by hand. Also, is there an easy way to edit the contents of the database if you don't know SQL (besides the obvious learning SQL)? Thanks in advance, Cory. PS I hope I'm not asking any dumb questions...I really did look through as many docs as I could find. I looked at the code a bit too, but I don't know perl very well, so I didn't really figure much out. |

I had to copy the init.d directory over to my /etc directory and edit the slashd script to get it working with OpenBSD 2.8. I also needed to change the var associated with the admin email to get the password mails to work. I could send you the changes I made to the script if you'd like...
