Oh and it's most likely the UUID from the cardreader, in which case i was wondering if there's away to use this with SD cards without one time pads?
(I had the impression that a unit for reading media did not have an UUID, but i suppose I'm wrong. Haven't tested this thou.)

Hi, wanted to use this marvellous plugin, but unfortunately i cant use it with a SD card on my eee - pam_usb will use the cardreader's serial number, and NOT check the UUID(????), which leads to it granting access even if nothing is in the reader.
First i think it should always check UUID if present in config file.
Second I think there should be an option to disable checking of serial-id...

It would be very nice to integrate pam_usb with ssh by using a ssh key for user authentication instead of the current way. Basically a user's usb key would contain his own private ssh key.
If his public key exists in the target user's authorized_keys file, then he will be allowed to log in as that user, otherwise he will be rejected.
A nice touch would be to add the private key on the usb to...

Hi! Thank you for that beautiful project. I tried it and experienced that it would be useful to have an option to disable every n-time one time pad writing to the flash drive, but to allow this program to use one time pad in the whole. Since I have some skills in programming, I've written a patch that realizes this option.
Best regards,
Denis.

this is connected to "pmount". I found pmount unable to use libsysfs properly and the pmount author unwilling to fix it ( http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg599440.html ).
can you please remove pmount from pamusb dependencies?.

The solution is in the first comment, add the device to pmount.allow file. Thanks.

The "problem" here is pmount, that does not see the partition of the usb-stick as a removeable device.
The solution is:
echo "/dev/sdX1" >> /etc/pmount.allow
pmount will then allow you to mount the device, even if it's a partition and not the stick itself.
I added all possible device-nodes to the file(sda1,sdb1,sdc1,sdd1,sde1,sdf1), so that there will be no problems if more then one...

Got it by deleting the folder in the usb stick as well.

I deleted the ~/.pamusb/???.conf file and recreated the configuration from scratch with pamusb-conf login works fine but the ~/.pamusb/???.conf is not being created.
