p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; } As you can already tell I am a newbie. I took a Microsoft VB2008 a few month back. Now I'm taking Linux + and this course requires me to write scripts. The script executes but, I can't figure out or have not found anything that I can make out on the internet that can answer my questions.
1 I need to make this two statements: if [ "$user_ID" = jcs ] && [ "$password" = 123456 ]
2 If they enter anything other than y they should get message Goodbye
3 Any comments would be appreciated.
4 I would like to add a counter
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# Date: 09/25/2011
# Purpose: Authenticate
# Creator: JCS
# Lasted Changed: 09/25/2011
clear
echo -n -e "\n\n\nPlease enter you ID: "
read user_ID
clear
echo -n -e "\n\n\nPlease enter your password "
read password
clear
*****if [ "$user_ID" = jcs ] && [ "$password" = 123456 ]; then
echo -e "\n\n\nYou have been authenticated."
else
echo -n -e "\n\n\nThere is a problem with your authentication. Would you like to try again, enter y for yes."
read answer
fi
while [ "$answer" = y ];
do
echo -e "\n\n\nPlease enter you ID: "
read user_ID
clear
echo -e "Please enter your password "
read password
clear
if [ "$user_ID" = jcs ] && [ "$password" = 123456 ]; then
echo -e "You have been authenticated."
else
***echo -e "There is a problem with your authentication. Would you like to try again. Enter y for yes"
read entry

kas_create
KAS_CREATE(8) AFS Command Reference KAS_CREATE(8)NAME
kas_create - Creates an entry in the Authentication Database
SYNOPSIS
kas create -name <name of user>
[-initial_password <initial password>]
[-admin_username <admin principal to use for authentication>]
[-password_for_admin <admin password>] [-cell <cell name>]
[-servers <explicit list of authentication servers>+]
[-noauth] [-help]
kas c -na <name of user> [-i <initial password>]
[-a <admin principal to use for authentication>]
[-p <admin password>] [-c <cell name>]
[-s <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-no] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The kas create command creates an entry in the Authentication Database for the user named by the -name argument.
To avoid having the account's initial password echo visibly at the shell prompt, omit the -initial_password argument; the command
interpreter prompts for the password and does not echo it visibly. Whether or not -initial_password is omitted, the Authentication Server
converts the password into a form suitable for use as an encryption key, and records it in the entry's key field.
To alter settings in an Authentication Database entry, use the kas setfields command. To examine an entry, use the kas examine command. To
list every entry in the database, use the kas list command.
OPTIONS -name <name of user>
Names the new Authentication Database entry. Because it is the name under which the user logs in, it must obey the restrictions that
many operating systems impose on user names (usually, to contain no more than eight lowercase letters).
-initial_password <initial password>
Sets the user's password; provide a character string that can include uppercase and lowercase letters, numerals and punctuation. The
Authentication Server scrambles the string into an octal string suitable for use as an encryption key before placing it in the entry's
key field. If this argument is omitted, the command interpreter prompts for the string and does not echo it visibly.
-admin_username <admin principal>
Specifies the user identity under which to authenticate with the Authentication Server for execution of the command. For more details,
see kas(8).
-password_for_admin <admin password>
Specifies the password of the command's issuer. If it is omitted (as recommended), the kas command interpreter prompts for it and does
not echo it visibly. For more details, see kas(8).
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see kas(8).
-servers <authentication servers>
Names each machine running an Authentication Server with which to establish a connection. For more details, see kas(8).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. For more details, see kas(8).
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
EXAMPLES
The following example shows the prompts that appear when an administrator logged in as "admin" creates an Authentication Database entry for
the user "smith", and does not include either the -initial_password or -password_for_admin arguments.
% kas create smith
Password for admin:
initial_password:
Verifying, please re-enter initial_password:
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must have the "ADMIN" flag set on his or her Authentication Database entry.
