Hi folks,

I'm trying to get our LTSP terminals to authenticate via the school's NT
domain. I've got winbind working from the console login... but not from
the terminals yet.

We're using xdm and I've noticed that xdm in /etc/pam.d is completely
different from the files for gdm and kdm. Both kdm and gdm reference
system-auth which I setup to call pam_winbind.so. The file for xdm does
not reference system-auth at all.

All three display managers basically do the same things... does anyone
know why xdm has a different security configuration then kdm or gdm?
Would it be ok from a security standpoint to duplicate the settings for
kdm to xdm in /etc/pam.d?

Here is /etc/pam.d/xdm: (Mandrake 8.2)

#%PAM-1.0
auth       required     /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow nullok
auth       required     /lib/security/pam_nologin.so
account    required     /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
password   required     /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so
password   required     /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow nullok use_authtok
session    required     /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
session    optional     /lib/security/pam_console.so

... and here are /etc/pam.d/kdm and gdm:

#%PAM-1.0
auth       required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
auth       required     /lib/security/pam_nologin.so
account    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
password   required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session    optional     /lib/security/pam_console.so

Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

-Tom
