Hi there Seems I have trouble to get OpenSSH to use PAM... I compiled the most recent version using ./configure --with-pam --with-md5-passwords My /etc/pam.d/sshd (on Debian) reads #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_unix.so shadow nodelay debug auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so debug account required /lib/security/pam_unix.so debug password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so debug password required /lib/security/pam_unix.so shadow nullok use_authtok debug session required /lib/security/pam_unix.so debug session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so debug session required pam_chroot.so debug The items in sshd_conf read Protocol 2 UseLogin no UsePrivilegeSeparation no Subsystem sftp /usr/local/libexec/sftp-server AllowTcpForwarding no ldd /usr/local/sbin/sshd gives libpam.so.0 => /lib/libpam.so.0 (0x29e93000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x29e9b000) libutil.so.1 => /lib/libutil.so.1 (0x29e9f000) libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x29ea2000) libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x29eb0000) libcrypto.so.0.9.6 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6 (0x29ec4000) libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x29f84000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x29fb1000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x29e7d000) However, I find no PAM relevant entries in my auth.log (on Debian), and the settings in OpenSSH's PAM file do not seem to work, too. Could it be that my OpenSSH does not use PAM? Compiliation went okay, and ./configure told me PAM would be used... :-( Thanks Florian _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
