Ok...i've had this problem for about 2 weeks now and it is really driving me crazy.
What is happening is that I am opening a SSH connection to my RH server running RH 9.0.
Once I type in my username, it takes about 3-5 seconds for the password prompt to show up...
This is really frustrating, so what i did was log in and start tailing the message log. Here is what I found:
Aug 19 09:43:44 corpmail sshd(pam_unix)[1702]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=jwilliams user=jwilliams
Bingo! Something is wrong.
I have a total of 3 RH 9.0 servers on the network, two of them which are having this long log in thing, while one is great. I compared all three of them and this is what I found:
#1
Aug 19 09:43:44 corpmail sshd(pam_unix)[1702]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=jwilliams user=j
#2
Aug 19 10:51:05 rack5 sshd(pam_unix)[18731]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=192.168.1.90 user=jwilliams
#3 (the one that works)
Aug 19 09:49:46 ubergeek sshd(pam_unix)[25622]: session opened for user jwilliams by (uid=500)
Just from looking at this, it appears that for servers #1 and #2, there is a problem with the uid, but #3 has no problem with that.
Anyone have any idea on why this is happening, what caused this and how to fix this?
I appreciate it.
