Hi everybody, does anybody know a way how to setup the passability to change passwords for local users and winbind (remote) users ? Right kow, I setup my /etc/pam.d/passwd like this: ------ password sufficient pam_winbind.so password required pam_unix.so ------ Now when I try to change the password for a user logged in via winbind auth I can change the password without any problems: tglatzelr@testtux:~$ passwd Changing password for tglatzel (current) NT password: Enter new NT password: Retype new NT password: passwd: password updated successfully For Notebooks Users I would like to allow local users to login and also allow them to change their passwords on the local system. With the configuration above I have to let the winbind auth fail to be able to enter the local passwd dialog. Afters the failed winbind auth, I am able to change the local password. this works somehow but it looks quite ugly. Is their a way to sepereate the password change process maybe in an localpasswd and a passwd script? How do I define new pam configuration in /etc/pam.d ? How does the program passwd know that its pam configuration is set up in /pam.d/passwd? Where in the source would I have to add modifications to create a seperate localpasswd program to change only local passwords ? I just looked into the passwd sources but did not find a pam ID or somethin comparable as I expected. Any hints would be very helpful... best regards Michael _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
