I was able to get pam_abl to work when I try to ssh to my server from another server on the network. I was able to blacklist (lock the account) of a user after so many attempts to login with the incorrect password. So I know the implementation of pam_abl works. However, I still get "Authentication Failed" when I attempt to login at a sunray AND at the console with CORRECT username and password. I narrowed it down to gdm-2.4.4.7.2 which is installed with sunray services 3.1.1 and 4. When I removed sunray services and gdm-2.4.4.7.2-12 and reinstalled the gdm-2.6.0.5-7, I was able to login at the console with my regular user account. When I again installed sunray services and the required installation of gdm-2.4.4.7.2, I was back to the "Authentication Failed" at the console and could not login until I removed the pam_abl.so call from system-auth.
Are there any plans to make sunray service compatible with a newer version of gdm?
