Subject: Re: question about pam_tally and the faillog
I am running a number of RHEL ES 4.5 systems, fully updated.
The problem I am having is baffling me. I am using pam_tally so that
three
consecutive unsuccessful logins will lock out the user, until an hourly
cron script unlocks the account. It has worked fine for a number of
years.
Anyone?
I've noticed the same problem with other accounts. suing to root tallies a
failed login, even though the su was successful.
Are you talking about remote SSH logins?
Are you using the UsePAM directive in your sshd_config file?
