Public bug reported:
I run a server with ubuntu lucid, pam et al 1.1.1-2ubuntu5.3.
I used pam-auth-update to enable unix-style and ldap style authentication.
For accounts that exist in my LDAP only, i get on every (successful!)
authentication attempt the following message in auth.log:
dovecot-auth: pam_unix(dovecot:auth): authentication failure; logname=
uid=0 euid=0 tty=dovecot ruser=xyz rhost=127.0.0.1 user=xyz
This appears to happen because of any of the following problems:
1. the unix module has a higher priority than the ldap module
2. the unix module itself logs errors even if its "control" settings (ie. the
second field in common-auth) ask it to ignore such a problem
3. the unix module is not supposed to be configured at the same time as the
ldap module.
