Hi, I am using pam_mount to mount my university network drive automatically each time I log in to my linux box.
I recently discovered that since I changed the pam configuration to include pam_mount, none of the predefined cron jobs and no user cron jobs were executed anymore. --- I get error messages in /var/log/auth.log saying: Sep 4 17:37:01 localhost CRON[6621]: pam_mount: error trying to retrieve authtok from auth code --- Also cron sends an email after executing cron.daily (via anacron): Envelope-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Delivery-date: Sun, 04 Sep 2005 17:33:31 +0100 From: Anacron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Anacron job 'cron.daily' on host-188-13 /etc/cron.daily/dwww: pam_mount: error trying to retrieve authtok from auth code reenter password:pam_mount: path to luserconf set to /var/www/.pam_mount.conf pam_mount: reading options_deny... pam_mount: back from global readconfig pam_mount: /var/www/.pam_mount.conf does not exist or is not owned by user pam_mount: no volumes to mount pam_mount: real and effective user ID are 0 and 0. pam_mount: clean system authtok (0) pam_mount: command: /usr/sbin/pmvarrun -u www-data -d -o 1 pam_mount: setting uid to 0 pam_mount: real and effective user ID are 0 and 0. pam_mount: real and effective group ID are 33 and 33. pam_mount: pmvarrun says login count is 1 pam_mount: done opening session pam_mount: user is www-data pam_mount: error trying to retrieve authtok from auth code pam_mount: enter read_password reenter password:pam_mount: path to luserconf set to /var/www/.pam_mount.conf pam_mount: reading options_deny... pam_mount: back from global readconfig pam_mount: /var/www/.pam_mount.conf does not exist or is not owned by user pam_mount: no volumes to mount pam_mount: real and effective user ID are 0 and 0. pam_mount: clean system authtok (0) pam_mount: command: /usr/sbin/pmvarrun -u www-data -d -o 1 pam_mount: setting uid to 0 pam_mount: real and effective user ID are 0 and 0. pam_mount: real and effective group ID are 33 and 33. pam_mount: pmvarrun says login count is 2 pam_mount: done opening session --- Thank you for any help, Alexander Pohl
