Hi all, New installation of FDS 1.0.2 on FC5. I have gotten netgroup access to host logins set up and working by following the steps in this document. http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:Netgroups This required the addition of this new (second) line in the account section of /etc/pam.d/system-auth for the access.netgroup.conf file to avoid issues with crond, which they don't elaborate on. account required pam_unix.so broken_shadow debug account required pam_access.so accessfile=/etc/security/access.netgroup.conf account sufficient pam_succeed_if.so uid < 500 quiet account [default=bad success=ok user_unknown=ignore] pam_ldap.so debug account required pam_permit.so But now I am seeing these failures in /var/log/secure. Oct 25 18:01:01 lin2600 crond[22707]: pam_access(crond:account): access denied for user `root' from `cron' I also cannot log in as root. So firstly, is all the advice in the above document accurate? Is the placement of this line incorrect (I am just starting to play with PAM) or do I need to add entries for root (or ALL) in /etc/security/access.conf (presently all commented out as it appears to be the default setup)? Thanks. -- - Kyle --------------------------------------------- kylet at panix.com http://www.panix.com/~kylet ---------------------------------------------
