pam_mount does not work on suse

iinfi1 — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 05:19:12 GMT

i needed pam_mount to mount cifs shares automatically

the codes are as below

--------------------
susedesktop:~ # cat /etc/pam.d/login
#%PAM-1.0
auth optional pam_mount.so
auth required pam_securetty.so
auth include common-auth
auth required pam_nologin.so
account include common-account
password include common-password
session include pam_mkhomedir.so
session include common-session
session required pam_lastlog.so nowtmp
session required pam_resmgr.so
session optional pam_mail.so standard

susedesktop:~ # cat /etc/pam.d/common-auth
auth required pam_env.so
auth required pam_unix2.so

susedesktop:~ # cat /etc/pam.d/common-session
#
# /etc/pam.d/common-session - session-related modules common to all services
#
# This file is included from other service-specific PAM config files,
# and should contain a list of modules that define tasks to be performed
# at the start and end of sessions of *any* kind (both interactive and
# non-interactive). The default is pam_unix2.
#
session optional pam_mkhomedir.so
session required pam_limits.so
session required pam_unix2.so
session optional pam_mount.so
susedesktop:~ #
--------------------

the moment a user logs in the /var/log/messages show:

I think it should state:

---------
auth optional pam_mount.so use_first_pass
---------

hi

i am afraid i have tried that too already. there is no change in the error.
i have formatted my machine and went through the entire process again.
no success.
pam_mount works fine in RHEL5 with the same entries in the config file. i am clueless as to what is going wrong.

Shalom,

Might be a pam bug.

Perhaps patch your system and see if you get better results after update and reboot.
