I tried to use PAM authentication in ProFTPd with libpam-mysql. If I use MD5-encrypted passwords in the MySQL-table, PAM-authentication (PAM: crypt=1 md5=y) always fails. If I change the passwords to MySQL-PASSWORD()-encryption, authentication (PAM: crypt=2) succeeds, also succesful with plaintext-passwords (PAM: crypt=0).
I'm using debian-sarge, libpam-mysql 0.5.0-6. The MD5-password-hash works with the courier-authmysql daemon and the select-statement in the MySQL-log is correct, so the problem probably lies somewhere inside libpam-mysql. Did anybody have success with this kind of configuration? Is this some strange bug in the md5-encryption part of libpam-mysql, or did I miss something? Any help appreciated, it cost me 4 hours of my life so far... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
