Here is my idea how to correct this and also resolve https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227345. We will define some arbitrary limit on the directory name. I propose 80 characters as I don't think full context is too useful in case it is much larger than what fits on the screen with ls output. And we will replace the rest of the context name with hash value of the whole context. We will also replace all non-alphanumeric characters which are not ':.,-' with '_' and if this translation happens we will also append the hash value of the untranslated context to guard against any ambiguities in the translated context names. Please ignore the second part (about non-alphanumeric characters in names) as it was already decided to use raw context names which cannot contain characters unsuitable for filenames. Fixed in pam-0.99.6.2-17.el5 in dist-5E-lspp This is slated for inclusion in 5.1 An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0555.html |
