Hello, I am using pam_mysql to authenticate pop users against a mysql database. All works well until I enter a username longer than 13 characters. I spoke to the authors of pam_mysql and they are puzzled as the length of the username is returned by pam itself and not the module. I also authenticated against the system pass account via pam, and that also failed (for long usernames). Pointing to a pam problem rather than pam_mysql. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. I am using PAM on a Linux SuSE 7.0 distribution. ------------------------- Chris Siakos Ph: +61 3 8604 2488 Secure Commerce Services Fax: +61 3 9629 2800 Level 1, 35 King Street Mbl: +61 414 482 595 Melbourne VIC 3000 Australia Email: chris@securecommerce.com.au SCS - Securing Electronic Business - (see www.securecommerce.com.au) -------------------------
