Hello! I am new to squid and I am having a little trouble authenticating users against /etc/shadow. I am using FC3, squid-2.5.STABLE6-3 and pam-0.77-66.2. I am trying to use pam_auth (squid's tool) to authenticate users against /etc/shadow, but It doesn't work. Here is a little about my configuration files. (And I have already setuid pam_auth) from /etc/squid/squid.conf auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/pam_auth auth_param basic children 5 auth_param basic realm Squid proxy-caching web server auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours auth_param basic casesensitive off acl password proxy_auth REQUIRED http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access allow password http_access allow localhost http_access deny all --------------------- from /etc/pam.d/squid auth required /lib/security/pam_unix.so shadow nullok account required /lib/security/pam_unix.so ------------------------------------- from /var/log/messages Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara kernel: audit(1107190903.207:0): avc: denied { search } for pid=5217 exe=/usr/lib/squid/pam_auth name=selinux dev=hdc6 ino=849817 scontext=root:system_r:squid_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:selinux_config_t tclass=dir Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara kernel: audit(1107190903.210:0): avc: denied { read } for pid=5217 exe=/usr/lib/squid/pam_auth name=shadow dev=hdc6 ino=798774 scontext=root:system_r:squid_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:shadow_t tclass=file Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara last message repeated 5 times Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara kernel: audit(1107190903.211:0): avc: denied { read } for pid=5217 exe=/usr/lib/squid/pam_auth name=shadow dev=hdc6 ino=798774 scontext=root:system_r:squid_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:shadow_t tclass=file Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara kernel: audit(1107190903.211:0): avc: denied { read } for pid=5217 exe=/usr/lib/squid/pam_auth name=shadow dev=hdc6 ino=798774 scontext=root:system_r:squid_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:shadow_t tclass=file Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara kernel: audit(1107190903.216:0): avc: denied { search } for pid=5249 exe=/sbin/unix_chkpwd name=selinux dev=hdc6 ino=849817 scontext=root:system_r:squid_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:selinux_config_t tclass=dir Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara kernel: audit(1107190903.270:0): avc: denied { read } for pid=5249 exe=/sbin/unix_chkpwd name=shadow dev=hdc6 ino=798774 scontext=root:system_r:squid_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:shadow_t tclass=file Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara kernel: audit(1107190903.270:0): avc: denied { read } for pid=5249 exe=/sbin/unix_chkpwd name=shadow dev=hdc6 ino=798774 scontext=root:system_r:squid_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:shadow_t tclass=file Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara unix_chkpwd[5249]: check pass; user unknown Jan 31 17:01:43 gaara squid(pam_unix)[5217]: authentication failure; logname= uid=23 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost= user=carlos Does squid is running under its own UID? or it's using root's UID?
