Re: [SSI-users] pam and logins

[Ron C. <ro...@de...>]

Here's something interesting.

When I create a "local" account (same username) but with a different
password then "everything" seems to work.

I assume (because of the different password) pam_unix fails, then
pam_afs does it's job using the provided username and password.
(and the pam_ldap does it's job getting uid, shell and homedirectory
info too).

So to me it seems the problem is that when the user doesn't exist
locally an "empty" username (and maybe password) is "handed" to pam_afs
?


and if that's the case...  how can that be fixed ?

thanks,

Ron

I am trying to debug pam loging in to afs on an openssi cluster.

Before pam_afs and pam_unix are used sshd already complains that the
user that I try to login with is an illegal user (it doesn't exist
locally).
(oort sshd[68250]: Illegal user cowboy from aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd)

Does that mean that sshd is not aware that there are other accounts,
OpenAFS accounts, then local accounts ?
If that's the case how do I make sshd afs aware ?

(on "other" linux machines I never ran into that problem)

thanks,

Ron
