getting linux-pam to work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have just compiled and installed linux-pam 0.75 and am having trouble
getting it to work.

When I run the example programs - I get

#
#blank
...
==> called pam_putenv()
  got: `Success'
a test: c=[gamma], j=[mu]
Who are you? root
==> called pam_authenticate()
  got: `Authentication failure'
./blank: invalid request
==> called pam_end()
  got: `Success'

#
#check_user
Not Authenticated



#
#xsh
==> called pam_start()
  got: `Success'
Who are you? root
==> called pam_authenticate()
  got: `Authentication failure'
./xsh: invalid request
==> called pam_end()
  got: `Success'


I have the shadow password suite installed already on my system but it
would appear that it is not being used.

my messages log file contains -
Jan  1 10:52:36 mobius PAM-warn[1257]: service: blank [on terminal: <unknown>]
Jan  1 10:52:38 mobius PAM-warn[1257]: user: (uid=0) -> rot [remote: ?nobody@?nowhere]
Jan  1 10:52:44 mobius PAM-warn[1259]: service: check [on terminal: <unknown>]
Jan  1 10:52:44 mobius PAM-warn[1259]: user: (uid=0) -> nobody [remote: ?nobody@?nowhere]
Jan  1 10:52:47 mobius PAM-warn[1262]: service: xsh [on terminal: <unknown>]
Jan  1 10:52:49 mobius PAM-warn[1262]: user: (uid=0) -> root [remote: ?nobody@?nowhere]


This is the same from both a remote login and a console login - I am not
sure hwere this is starting?
