Ubuntu 11.10 system. I have sssd set up. Using pam-auth-update I enable
both sssd and Unix style authentication. The sssd uses LDAP only for
user account lookup. Users defined in sssd can change passwords OK,
however, local user accounts cannot, e.g. when logged in as a local user
(btmiller):
btmiller@hostname:~$ passwd
Current Password:
New Password:
Reenter new Password:
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
passwd: password unchange
The following appears in /var/log/auth.log:
Mar 16 18:18:05 hostname passwd[20544]: pam_sss(passwd:chauthtok):
Authentication failed for user btmiller: 10 (User not known to the underlying
authentication module)
Mar 16 18:18:10 hostname passwd[20544]: pam_sss(passwd:chauthtok): Password
change failed for user btmiller: 10 (User not known to the underlying
authentication module)
It looks like PAM has been set up to call pam_sss for ALL password
changes, regardless of whether the user is local or has been defined
through sss.
