From: utzoo!decvax!cca!fortune!Dave-Yost@sri-unix Newsgroups: net.unix-wizards Title: proposed extension to uucp USERFILE format Article-I.D.: fortune.220 Posted: Thu Jul 29 21:31:03 1982 Received: Sat Jul 31 06:23:49 1982 Like some other hip sites, we have individual uucp logins for each remote site. I'd like to extend uucico so that an optional third field in a USERFILE line would be for the login name, as in ,decvax,udecvax /usr/spool/uucppublic so that no system pretending to be decvax could get in without logging in as udecvax. Anyone done anything along these lines? This would plug the security hole of a system with a restricted path logging in and pretending to be a system that has less restricted path access without requiring callback. --dave yost
