this is a email I was sent by a michael at hp on 23/1/2002, which is basically what I done.
-------- In the meanwhile I got an additional hint about how to work around the libpam_unix.1 issue, which is not tolerating unknown nsswitch backends to be configured in /etc/nsswitch.conf when doing password management. This makes /usr/bin/passwd stop working. In case LDAP is not being used, one might move /usr/lib/libnss_ldap.1 aside (if present) and create a symbolic link from /usr/lib/libnss_ldap.1 to /usr/lib/libnss_winbind.1. Consequently, ldap should then be configured instead of winbind in /etc/nsswitch.conf. It's kind of ugly hack, but the only workaround available right now... -------- -----Original Message----- From: Richard Sharpe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 27 January 2003 03:05 p.m. To: Miles Roper Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: Winbind on HPUX11, Totally Stuck, Please Help On Mon, 27 Jan 2003, Miles Roper wrote: Let me first say that I am no expert on HP-UX, maybe Tim Potter can help, now that he works for them. > I can do a wbinfo -u and get the user names, and a wbinfo -g returns the > groups.

It looks like PAM on your version of HP-UX does not handle arbritrary NSS shared library stuff.
