Look in the log files on your system and you might get some good
debugging information if the module has a logging function coded into it
already. If you need an easy to use logging function for your module
look in the source for the Linux-PAM package's other modules.

Hello all.
I'm currently developing a module for PAM and having some difficulties.
First, the module is linked with the NSS lib (from mozilla). Trying it on
login, wverything runs well, pam_sm_authenticate() returns PAM_SUCCESS, and
there comes the problem. The login locks for some time, and then, prints a
message of time out, showing the login prompt again. I have no idea why is
this happening. I've tried to substitude the module's code for the
pam_permit.c code, wich gave me another error: "Login incorrect" (the
pam_sm_authenticate wasn't called and I assume that was because the little
code was linked to the NSS lib and something went wrong when loading the
module)...Does anyone know this behaviour or can help me debugging?? I have
no idea how to debug the login...
Also, I did a little program that uses this module, and, pam_authenticate()
returns PAM_SUCCESS, and then, the shell is available again. So, nothing
strange here. Only when using it with login.
Thanks in advance
