authserv.C File Reference

Detailed Description

This macro should be run together with authclient.C to test authentication between two remote ROOT sessions.

Run first the authserv.C within a ROOT session on the server machine, eg. "srv.machi.ne":

     root[] .x authserv.C(3000)

authserv accepts as argument the port where it starts listening (default 3000). You can then run authclient.c in a ROOT session on the client machine:

     root[] .x authclient.C("srv.machi.ne:3000")

and you should get prompted for the credentials, if the case. To start a parallel socket of size, for example, 5, enter the size as second argument, ie

     root[] .x authclient.C("srv.machi.ne:3000",5)

#include "TPServerSocket.h"

int authserv(int po = 3000)
{

   UChar_t oauth = kSrvAuth;

   TServerSocket *ss = 0;
   TSocket *s = 0;

   cout << "authserv: starting a (parallel) server socket on port "
        << po << " with authentication" << endl;

   ss = new TPServerSocket(po);

   // Get the connection
   s = ss->Accept(oauth);

   // Print out;
   if (s)
      if (s->IsAuthenticated())
         cout << "authserv: srv auth socket: OK" << endl;
      else
         cout << "authserv: srv auth socket: failed" << endl;

   // Cleanup
   if (s) delete s;
   if (ss) delete ss;
}
