9254.0. "C 2--API problem in V4.0" by AXPBIZ::SIVA () Fri Mar 21 1997 18:08
Hi,
Is there a way we can convert the auth database from the ".db" format
to old ../../auth/[a-z] format..? Here is the problem:
We have an application built in 3.2c which is supposed to be binary
compatiable with subsequent OS versions (eg. V4.0). This application
uses "getprpwnam" to validate the user . Since the security DB
files got changed in V4.0, the application gives "file not found".
BTW, this happens only with static-linked binary and not with
shared one.
Apart from re-compiling, is there any work around..?
thanks
