[Lias] PAM

Thanks,
It seems I was missing this line:

auth        required    /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok
the "likeauth" part was missing so it would ask again.

Anyone had luck authenticating apache through pam/winbind?

cheers,
Tom.

Hi Tom,

My first guess would be that PAM is setup for two lots of
authentication. That is, you have the winbind authentication
and the unix authentication both set to "required", rather
than having only one, or having one as "sufficient".

eg. You have something like:

auth        required    /lib/security/pam_winbind.so
auth        required    /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok 

rather than:

auth        sufficient  /lib/security/pam_winbind.so
auth        required    /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok 

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Jonathon
