Wich app? PAM? Login? My module? My test app? :) Thanks a lot for that test harness!!! I debugged with it and this is what I found out: 1: the tester request for a "login" service (and my module is loaded for that) 2: the tester calls pam_authenticate. 3: my module returns PAM_SUCCESS 4: the tester calls pam_acct_mgmt(pamh, 0) 5: pam_permit.so handles that and returns PAM_SUCCESS 5: the tester calls pam_open_session(pamh, 0); 6: pam_unix responds to the call, and, on the line 98 of pam_unix_sess.c, it calls the this function on support.c: _log_err(LOG_INFO, pamh, "session opened for user %s by %s(uid=%d)", user_name, login_name, getuid()); /* values: user_name = "tbezerra", login_name = "", getuid() = 1022 (tbezerra's id) */ And there, at line 53 [syslog(err, format, args);], the tester halts!! No error, no nothing. Simply stops! More ideas?? I'm really lost!! -----Mensagem original----- De: Max Campos <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Enviada em: 21/01/2005 15:42:33 Para: Pluggable Authentication Modules <pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Assunto: Re: Problem writing module It sounds like it might be the app. At any rate, I personally use this test harness to get everything ironed out, _THEN_ I start testing with actual apps. It makes it really easy to see what's going on. http://www.zip.com.au/~dtucker/patches/#pamtest This is a very hand gem!
