LDAP-UX asking for system password

after running the ./setup and configuring the ldap-ux client, a user id was created on AD, and unix, the password is in the Active Directory

when i try to telnet as that user i get asked for system password

example
telnet
login:
Password:
System Password:

i tried entering the user password again, and i get the login prompt again

any ideas on why this is happening

Re: LDAP-UX asking for system password

Shalom,

I would assume that some part of the configuration process was not completed.

Some suggestions:

1) was /etc/nsswtich.conf changed?
2) Did the machine use "net join" to join the domain (this requires an admin password on the windows PDC).

Any number of things could have gone wrong.

I'd check the logfiles like /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log and the event viewer on the windows system for clues as to what went wrong. Then you can post some meaningful data and get some real help.

I believe one of those scripts you ran has an error log that should also be checked.

Re: LDAP-UX asking for system password

hi Steve

i looked at syslog.log but no important data is in it,

the nsswitch.conf is as follow
passwd: files ldap
group: files ldap
hosts: dns [NOTFOUND=return] files ldap
networks: files ldap
protocols: files ldap
rpc: files ldap
publickey: files
netgroup: files ldap
automount: files
aliases: files
services: files ldap

i can query the AD with the proxy user we setup,

it's a single domain AD, right now this is the test server,


# more krb5.conf
ENTERPRISE.CORP = {
[libdefaults]
default_realm = ENTERPRISE.CORP
default_tgs_enctypes = DES-CBC-CRC
default_tkt_enctypes = DES-CBC-CRC
ccache_type = 2
[realms]
ENTERPRISE.CORP = {
kdc = SRVC.ENTERPRISE.CORP:88
kpasswd_server = SRVC.ENTERPRISE.CORP:761
}
[domain_realm]
.enterprise.corp = ENTERPRISE.CORP
[logging]
kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log
admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmin.log
default = FILE:/var/log/krb5lib.log

i went to /var/log but no logs are available

pam.conf looks at krb5 then local

login auth sufficient /usr/lib/security/libpam_krb5.1
login auth required /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 try_first_pass

Re: LDAP-UX asking for system password

seems to be pam.conf or pam_user.conf file not configured properly.

Check both files again.

Re: LDAP-UX asking for system password

also please run pamkrbval -v command to see any errors.

Re: LDAP-UX asking for system password

pam_user.conf has no entry in it

just this
#
# This file defines PAM configuration for a user. The configuration
# here overrides pam.conf.
#
# The format for each entry is:
# user_name module_type module_path options
#
# For example:
#
# user_a auth /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 debug
# user_a auth /usr/lib/security/libpam_dce.1 try_first_pass
# user_a password /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 debug
#
# user_b auth /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 debug use_psd
# user_b password /usr/lib/security/libpam_unix.1 debug use_psd

Re: LDAP-UX asking for system password

it was the pam.conf it was checking the krb and not ldap
