I have an
/etc/pam.d/login file that contains one line:
auth required
pam_radius_auth.so debug
I additionally have
an /etc/pam.d/other file that contains one line:
auth required
pam_unix.so
When I
attempt to login using the module as configured in the 'login' file above,
the log shows that authentication succeeds for the radius module, but then
PAM immediately attempts to authenticate using the pam_unix.so module,
although there is no auth line in the 'login' file requesting that PAM
authenticate against UNIX. I've determined that it's attempting the
pam_unix authentication because of the pam_unix directive in the 'other'
file (if I comment out the line in the 'other' file and then reattempt
authentication, I see the message "PAM no modules loaded for `login' service" in
the /var/log/auth.log file).
Why is the one line
in the 'login' file not sufficient for me to successfully authenticate?
Why does the 'other' file affect my authentication?
Any help with this
issue would be greatly appreciated!
Yours,
Dan
