[OpenAFS-devel] afs_dynamic_auth bug under AIX 4.3.3.10?

I have authentication with OpenAFS 1.2.7 afs_dynamic_auth running on
AIX 4330-10. I recall that since some level of bos.rte.security (I
think 4.3.3.25, which appeared between 4330-04 and 4330-05), the stanza
specifying the AFS authentication method has to be specified in
/usr/lib/security/methods.cfg instead of /etc/security/login.cfg. Could
that be your problem? Note that I moved to OpenAFS only recently and
always compiled and ran it on 4330-10. Maybe there is a difference if
you compiled on 4330-04 and now run on 4330-10.

Greetings,

I have OpenAFS 1.2.7 installed on a newly rebuilt machine running AIX 
4.3.3. AFS login authentication worked at ML 04 but when I upgraded 
the OS to ML 10 it broke.

I could use AFS logins again by replacing 
/usr/vice/etc/afs_dynamic_auth from OpenAFS with the one from the 
TransArc 3.6 Patch 5.1 distribution. Apparently, Transarc fixed an 
authentication problem in Patch 4 (APAR IY24786, I believe).

Has anyone done anything to address this problem in OpenAFS?

TIA,
