Pam_unix(sshd:auth): Check Pass; User Unknown
Active Directory Authentication to work with CentOS5. I have been doing this fine on CentOS4 but have been unsuccessful on CentOS5 pam user not known to the underlying authentication module and am my whits in trying to figure out why. Samba and Kerberos are configured properly, and the machine is joined to the domain. I cant pull everything from wbinfo, and manually authenticate directly error retrieving information about user vmware from winbind. So my problem must be with the PAM connectors. I used the system-config-authentication to enable authing through winbind, winbind is in the nsswitch.conf. Yet when I log in via SSH it is never even attempting to check with Winbind. I've tried using the old pam files from centos4 but they appear to be incompatible, but it does try to use winbind though shows a failure no mater
Error: Pam: User Not Known To The Underlying Authentication Module For Illegal User
what.I read posts where people are saying they are doing this. Did you do anything special to get it working? Got any suggestions for someone with issues to look for?Thanks in advance Top kentyler Posts: 161 Joined: 2007/06/20 13:31:05 Location: Northeast Ohio Contact: Contact kentyler Website Yahoo Messenger AOL Re: PAM/Winbind Authentication Quote Postby kentyler » 2008/08/26 18:44:57 Do you have nscd running?

Error Retrieving Information About User Pam Succeed If
can log into some hosts but not others using their LDAP account information. To demonstrate, I take one of the users who is trying to login http://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=27911 and verify that he does not have a local account on the target computer: [root@monitor:~] #grep spencer /etc/passwd [root@monitor:~] # [root@monitor:~] #id spencer id: spencer: No such user You have a problem already, the id command should return spencer's account info if everything is configured correctly. But the user should have the ability http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201403/msg00107.html to login via their LDAP account: [root@monitor:~] #getent passwd | grep spencer spencer :*:10002:5000:Spencer Brown :/home/spencer:/bin/bash Assuming your PAM and NSS are configured correctly, this usually indicates that you have NSCD running on your system, and its cache is stale. Do a google search on NSCD problems - it's well established fact that NSCD is broken by design and is unusable. Your nsswitch config shows you're using RedHat's SSSD. SSSD also caches information, and there are also many problems with its caching implementation. Again, SSSD is not recommended. The recommended software is nssov (+pcache if you still want caching). But when I attempt to log into the host using his password (this is a test account and I know the password) I get permission denied: [me@home:~/creds] #ssh spencer@monitor.jokefire.com

Hi Friends, I have a openldap server running on one machine (fedora10) and pam_ldap.so and nss_ldap.so running on the other machine. I have added a error retrieving information new user to the LDAP server database, this user is not created on client machine. 1. Can i login to the client machine using this new user? 2. Now if i try logging with this new user I am getting error messages, the error messages are as follows at client side Sep 2 10:34:36 localhost sshd[8484]: Invalid user kim from 10.254.194.148 Sep 2 10:34:36 localhost sshd[8485]: input_userauth_request: invalid user kim Sep 2 10:35:16 localhost sshd[8484]: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as user "cn=min soo,ou=people,dc=samsung,dc=com" (Invalid credentials) Sep 2 10:35:16 localhost sshd[8484]: pam_succeed_if(sshd:auth): error retrieving information about user kim Sep 2 10:35:16 localhost sshd[8484]: Failed password for invalid user kim from 10.254.194.148 port 52652 ssh2 Kindly let me know is it a limitation with LDAP ???

You should be able to log into the client machine. I cover it on my ldap page, I think I've linked it in some other threads you've begun. h
