Hello!
I have played around a bit with the socket interfaces available in ROOT. After nice success with server.C/client.C I wanted to test also the authserv.C/authclient.C scripts available under the “net” tutorials.
I’m using a local linux machine with cvmfs access, setting up the root version specified below.
I run the authserver.C macro first, and in a different terminal then run the authclient.C, making sure I have the same port selected and using localhost for now for testing.
The server part quits with
Error in <TPServerSocket::Authenticate>: can't find SrvAuthenticate
Below what I see in my terminals:
[aleopold@gluino networking]$ root -l -q -b authserver.C"(9090)"
Processing authserver.C(9090)...
authserv: starting a (parallel) server socket on port 9090 with authentication
Error in <TPServerSocket::Authenticate>: can't find SrvAuthenticate
(int) 0
[aleopold@gluino networking]$ root -l -q -b authclient.C"(\"localhost:9090\", 1)"
Processing authclient.C("localhost:9090", 1)...
authclient: starting a (parallel) authenticated socket at phttp://localhost:9090 (size: 1)
(int) 0
Are there some configurations etc that might be missing here (read a bit through the README.AUTH, but lacking experience identify what that could be), or could it be that the ROOT version I use here is built with parts missing for this application?
Thanks a lot,
Alex
PS: really new to this sort of communication business, so sorry for missing anything obvious
