Hi all, i've got a problem with ipo3d and pam_mysql on Redhat 9. I've compiled and installed pam_mysql 0.5 sucessfully. I put those three lines to /etc/pam.d/pop: #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_mysql.so user=dbuser host=someip passwd=somepass db=mydb table=email crypt=0 account required /lib/security/pam_mysql.so user=dbuser host=someip passwd=somepass db=mydb table=email crypt=0 The MySQL-Server is up and running on a remote host. With the 'mysql' client i can access the remote mysqlserver. I can access the database and the table and do some selects. Everything's fine until i try to use ipop3d: When i launch ipop3d and do some logins from the shell, it does not even try to connect to the remote mysqlserver. I recompiled pam_mysql.so with #define DEBUG and expected to see some syslog messages. I don't see any syslog messages from pam_mysql. It looks like pam_mysql.so is not invoked. I did an additional syslog message in pam_mysql.c right at the beginning to make absolutely sure that it prints something to syslog when it is invoked. Nothing. On the other hand, if i comment out the 'auth' and 'account' lines in /etc/pam.d/pop and put these 2 lines in it: auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth .. i can access ipop3d with a local system user. That means that PAM generally seems to be active at this point. Anyone has an idea what i can try to get further information why pam_mysql.so doesn't work? By the way, on another old 7.3 install it works quite well. Hopefully someone has an idea ...
