Provide a central function to change the user id
of the calling process.
This is mostly used by programs to become the none
user, followed by a call to newns().
Opening a /srv file sets the close-on-exec flag on the
shared channel breaking the exportfs openmount() hack.
The devsrv tries to prevent posting a channel with the
close-on-exec or remove-on-close flags. but nothing
currently prevents this poisoning on open.
Until this gets fixed in eigther exportfs or devsrv,
i'll back out the changes that could have potential side
effects like this.
The mount() and bind() syscalls return -1 on error,
and the mountid sequence number on success.
The manpage states that the mountid sequence number
is a positive integer, but the kernels implementation
currently uses a unsigned 32-bit integer and does not
guarantee that the mountid will not become negative.
Most code just cares about the error, so test for
the -1 error value only.
due to linux omiting the final Z(4) in the NTLMv2 reply, and
the need for the windom for LMv2 authentication, here is a new
AuthNTLM ticket request now with length and dom fields.
this is in preparation for replacing DES ticket encryption with
something better. but first need to make the code stop making
assumptions.
the wire encoding of the Ticket might be variable length
with TICKETLEN just giving an upper bound. the details will be
handled by libauthsrv _asgetticket() and _asgetresp() funciotns.
the Authenticator and Passwordreq structures are encrypted
with the random ticket key. The encryption schmeme will depend
on the Ticket format used, so we pass the Ticket* structure
instead of the DES key.
introduce Authkey structure that will hold all the required
cryptographic keys instead of passing DES key.
