I think your problem is in your pam module configuration, I use something like that for auth: --- auth required pam_nologin.so auth sufficient pam_unix.so auth required pam_ldap.so use_first_pass --- With this setup the user is only asked once; if 'pam_unix' succeds the user is authorized and if it fails 'pam_ldap' tries to authenticate using the same password entered. Hope this helps. -- Sergio Talens-Oliag <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Key fingerprint = 29DF 544F 1BD9 548C 8F15 86EF 6770 052B B8C1 FA69
