[indiana-discuss] pam_list and pam_sm_authenticate errors - console login opensolaris 2009.06
Dear All, Having enabled pam_list in /etc/pam.conf I can then happily control who can log on via ssh and that works fine. HOWEVER, once pam_list is included in /etc/pam.conf then console logins ALL fail with messages such as Apr 30 11:32:55 phoenix login: [ID 825731 auth.error] dlsym failed pam_sm_authenticate: error ld.so.1: login: fatal: pam_sm_authenticate: can't find symbol Google locates various other people reporting this sort of problem, but I can't spot any obvious solutions. To provide a bit extra input, I tried running nm on a selection of pam libraries. r...@phoenix:/var/log# nm /usr/lib/security/pam_dial_auth.so.1 | grep pam_sm_authenticate [58]| 2524| 1172|FUNC |GLOB |0|12 |pam_sm_authenticate r...@phoenix:/var/log# *** so that one has a pam_sm_authenticate symbol, HOWEVER ** r...@phoenix:/var/log# nm /usr/lib/security/pam_list.so.1 | grep pam_sm_authenticate r...@phoenix:/var/log# ** show it does indeed NOT have a pam_sm_authenticate So 1/. on the one, hand, is pam_list broken in some sense? 2/. alternatively, being pragmatic, can I do anything to stop console logons trying to do whatever they do do that hits this bug... As I say, pam_list is obviously NOT totally broken as after adding the appropriate line into /etc/pam.conf then it does do its job fine for ssh type logons, allowing in the users I want and blocking others Thanks, Dave Price -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ indiana-discuss mailing list indiana-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss

Hi Dave, as Casper Dik suggested in opensolaris-discuss@, you have misconfigured the system. I hoped man page is clear enough with EXAMPLES section... pam_list is not authentication but account module.

Dear Milam, Yes, thanks. I spotted casper's reply and one from Darren. All now fixed. I comment on another weird PAM issue we had earlier this week in the end of my reply to casper. I wonder about posting that as another thread somewhere Thanks, Dave Price -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ indiana-discuss mailing list indiana-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss

[indiana-discuss] IPS distro-import changes needed for X packages for nv_139
No changes in the core X packages in Nevada build 139 will need updates to the IPS distro-import package definitions for those packages. However, John Martin has provided updates to the nvidia-graphics manifest which have been forwarded to David already. As usual, this only lists the changes that need distro-import changes, the full list of X changes in these builds can be seen at: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+x_win/changelogs-nv_130#HBuild139 -- -Alan Coopersmith-alan.coopersm...@oracle.com Oracle Solaris Platform Engineering: X Window System ___ indiana-discuss mailing list indiana-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss

Nothing odd about that at all, unless you like all the Apple vs. Adobe public fights. If Solaris was not their preferred platform plus they had all these obstacles getting help from Oracle, the easy way out is to drop it and focus on other areas that will have greater impact. Or do you think everybody that disagrees with how Oracle is running OpenSolaris are really going to step up and complain ? A lot of users will just go somewhere else. -- Giovanni ___ indiana-discuss mailing list indiana-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
