Hi Jan,

   No, I did not use the IPA documentation. The reason, everything is handled 
for me using the Question authentication PAM module. All the encryption, 
kerberos and all that good stuff is done for me. I just followed the 
documentation on the Satellite product and did the changes to:

/etc/rhn/rhnf.conf and added pam_auth_service = rhn-satellite

Moved or created what I think is the correct pam configuration and created the 
file /etc/pam.d/rhn-satellite with those entries.

I then restarted everything, created my AD account in SW, checked the PAM 
checkbox.

Created the necessary DG with the appropriate permissions in spacewalk making 
sure it matched the AD group name as it's displayed.

Logged in to SW with my AD account, got in but only very limited persions. The 
group I gave the permissions too has complete access to SW, Org Admin and SW 
Admin. So I should see ever menu and option. I don't, just a standard user.

So I'm wondering if there is logging in tomcat what I can turn on to see what's 
being returned. I used quests tools and it does bring back the correct AD group 
with my ID in it. I'm just wondering how tomcat is doing everything in the 
backend. But there is no logging other than unable to authenticate if I get my 
password wrong.

I also kind of pieced this together using:

http://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2013-July/msg00037.html

It's using winbind so I started at step 4. No luck there either.

I think the issue is I have the PAM setup incorrect in 
/etc/pam.d/rhn-satellite, but without any kind of logging it's hard to 
diagnose. I did try and turn on the actual PAM logging/debugging, but it game 
not real low level logging.

I also looked at someone using centrify:

And that gave me no luck either. Pretty much the same thing.

So if anyone has any good ideas it would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Glen Collins

Can you be a little more specific about the way you have enabled
the authentication? Do you use pam_ldap or external authentication per
