I logged out after I got kde3rc6 upgraded, and couldn't log back in. We're using LDAP and pam_smb, the config is in /etc/pam.d/system-auth, and kdm has been working since I started running cooker on this box. gdm still works, and I haven't touched it's pam file.
I get this in auth.log Jan 8 13:56:04 bgmilne kde3(pam_unix)[19894]: check pass; user unknown Jan 8 13:56:04 bgmilne kde3(pam_unix)[19894]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser= rhost= [bgmilne:~]# cat /etc/pam.d/kde3 #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth session required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so [bgmilne:~]# cat /etc/pam.d/system-auth #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so auth required /lib/security/pam_env.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_smb_auth.so use_first_pass auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok try_first_pass auth required /lib/security/pam_deny.so account sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so account sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so account required /lib/security/pam_deny.so password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so retry=3 minlen=2 dcredit=0 ucredit=0 password sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so password sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so nullok use_authtok md5 shadow use_first_pass password required /lib/security/pam_deny.so session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so session sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so session sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so session required /lib/security/pam_deny.so I actually upgraded to rc6 to see what /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver3 contains, since it was *really* broken, and I previsouly had to change it so I could unlock the screensaver. This should be good enough for kscreensaver: [bgmilne:~]# cat /etc/pam.d/xlock #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth and xscreensaver uses it too. Is anyone else using non-local authentication (ie ldap, winbind, kerberos) having problems with kdm? -- |--------------Another happy Mandrake Club member--------------| Buchan Milne Mechanical Engineer, Network Manager Cellphone * Work +27 82 472 2231 * +27 21 8828820x121 Stellenbosch Automotive Engineering http://www.cae.co.za GPG Key http://ranger.dnsalias.com/bgmilne.asc 1024D/60D204A7 2919 E232 5610 A038 87B1 72D6 AC92 BA50 60D2 04A7
