Using a configuration of: auth sufficient pam_krb5.so auth required pam_unix.so nullok_secure in /etc/pam.d/common-auth, I can move aside /etc/krb5.conf and all that happens is that login drops through immediately to pam_unix. I can make guesses as to what return codes might work better, but everything seems fine with login. What PAM-enabled program is aborting the whole authentication in this case? -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
