Hi All: Posted a Q last week about PAM and Novell that one is solved but now I get this:
in /var/log/secure : Apr 1 09:18:50 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: using server LTSPTEST ctxs CC group (null) Apr 1 09:18:50 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: nw_create_verify_conn_to_tree: trying to resolve Test1.CC Apr 1 09:18:50 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: trying to login as Test1.CC Apr 1 09:18:51 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: User Test1.CC was successfully authorized by NDS server LTSPTEST on tree LINUX_TREE Apr 1 09:18:51 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: Auth OK Apr 1 09:18:51 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: start of nw_auto_mount_home Apr 1 09:18:51 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: saving user_info Apr 1 09:18:51 linuxtse pam_ncp_auth[28252]: final PAM retval 0 So everything looks okay, but in /var/log/messages I get : Apr 1 09:18:50 linuxtse gdm(pam_unix)[28252]: check pass; user unknown Apr 1 09:18:50 linuxtse gdm(pam_unix)[28252]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser= rhost= Apr 1 09:18:51 linuxtse gdm(pam_unix)[28252]: could not identify user (from getpwnam(Test1)) Apr 1 09:18:51 linuxtse gdm-binary[28252]: Couldn't set acct. mgmt for Test1 My pam.d/gdm lines are : auth requisite pam_nologin.so auth sufficient pam_unix.so nullok auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ncp_auth.so -zAX -n -A -d -l -u,,,gcds ndsserver=LTSPTEST:CC auth required pam_deny.so account required pam_unix.so session required pam_unix.so session optional /lib/security/pam_ncp_auth.so password required pam_unix.so nullok obscure min=4 Is it the case where the lines in messages are from a attempt to log in using the locally stored passwd/shadow ? I still cannot get passed the Gnome login screen (GDM) There I get a "Incorrect username or password".
