3 | .SH NAME | |
4 | reg_svr, startreg \- Moira user account registration server | |
5 | .SH SYNOPSIS | |
6 | .B reg_svr | |
7 | .br | |
8 | .B startreg | |
9 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
10 | The registration server | |
11 | must be running on the machine hosting the Moira database for the | |
12 | .I userreg | |
13 | program to function. Rather than invoke | |
14 | .B reg_svr | |
15 | directly, it is started by | |
16 | .B startreg, | |
17 | which starts the daemon running in the proper working directory and | |
18 | captures logging messages. | |
19 | .PP | |
20 | Logging is done to standard output. | |
21 | If critical errors are detected, they are logged to | |
22 | .B /u1/sms/critical.log | |
23 | and in a zephyrgram to class | |
24 | .B MOIRA | |
25 | instance | |
26 | .B REG_SVR | |
27 | in addition to standard output. | |
28 | Also, a journal file is kept in | |
29 | .B /u1/sms/journal.reg | |
30 | logging every successful change of the database in a format that can | |
31 | be replayed by | |
32 | .I mrtest(8). | |
33 | For the server to be able to function properly, if must be run as root | |
34 | and root must have access to the tables through RTI Ingres. Also, | |
35 | Kerberos principal "moira.[servername]" must be on the Kerberos admin | |
36 | server ACL to create new principals and set their passwords. | |
37 | .PP | |
38 | .B startreg | |
39 | sets its working directory to the root, disconnects from the terminal | |
40 | and puts itself in the background. It then starts | |
41 | .B /u1/sms/bin/reg_svr, | |
42 | and will capture lines the server writes to standard output and log them | |
43 | in | |
44 | .B /u1/sms/reg_svr.log | |
45 | along with a timestamp. | |
46 | .B startreg | |
47 | will also log the exit status of the | |
48 | .B reg_svr | |
49 | if it is non-zero. | |
