HELP! I've gotten farther in getting the Apache mod_auth_pam module to work on HP-UX 11.00 At this point it compiles and runs, and works correctly on one of my HP-UX machines, but not on another one. On both machines, I have installed the exact same binaries of Apache with mod_auth_pam. I have also enabled pam debugging by touching /etc/pam_debug Both machines are running HP-UX 11.00 32-bit. On the machine that *works*, pam_debug puts the following in syslog: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_start(httpd millaadi) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_set_item(1) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_set_item(2) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_set_item(5) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_authenticate() Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: load_modules: /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: load_function: successful load of pam_sm_authenticate Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_get_username(ux) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_mapping_in_use() Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: unix pam_sm_authenticate(httpd millaadi), flags = 2 Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_set_item(6) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_acct_mgmt() Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: load_modules: /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: load_function: successful load of pam_sm_acct_mgmt Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_set_item(6) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_get_username(ux) Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_mapping_in_use() Oct 3 16:04:54 titanium PAM: pam_end(): status = Success ----------------------------------------------------------------------- But on the machine that *doesn't* work, I get this: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_start(httpd millaadi) Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_set_item(1) Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_set_item(2) Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_set_item(5) Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_authenticate() Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: load_modules: /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: load_function: successful load of pam_sm_authenticate Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_get_username(ux) Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_mapping_in_use() Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_authenticate: error Conversation failure Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_set_item(6) Oct 3 16:07:48 silver PAM: pam_end(): status = Success ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I can't figure out what a "conversation failure" is, or more specifically what is causing it. If anyone has any ideas, I would greatly appreciate any tips or advice.
