Problem with HP-SMH and RH4 (authentication failure)
Hello,
I have an old RH4 Linux and I can't bring this server into our HP-SIM.
Server is discovered, but when I try to login to the SMH, the vaild login credentials are not accepted.
I try root/password =>Username and password do not match
But local on the shell it works correct, so password is fine!
In the messages I see:
...
Jan 23 16:11:58 <HOSTNAME sysmgthp(pam_unix)[26245]: authentication failure; logname= uid=1223 euid=1223 tty= ruser= rhost= user=root
...
uid1223 is the hpsmh user
Maybe something in the /etc/pam.d is wrong, login -file? su -file?
I have no other RH4 system to verify.
Not shure, what I have to change, because some time ago (on other serer) I made some changes there and no one can login; also not locally on the console :-(

Re: Problem with HP-SMH and RH4 (authentication failure)
You attached the PAM configuration files for "login" and "su". These files look pretty much standard... but these refer to a third file, namely /etc/pam.d/system-auth.
Besides, the message indicates that "sysmgthp" is calling PAM directly, so you should be looking at either the SMH-specific PAM configuration file /etc/pam.d/sysmgthp or /etc/pam.d/other, which is used by all PAM-aware applications that don't have a PAM configuration file of their own.
In RHEL4, the /etc/pam.d/other file is set to deny everything by default, so if the sysmgthp PAM configuration file is not correct, the authentication is pretty much guaranteed to fail.
The default sysmgthp PAM config from one of our old systems, with SMH version 2.1.5:
#%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth auth required pam_nologin.so account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required pam_stack.so service=system-auth # pam_selinux.so close should be the first session rule session required pam_selinux.so close session required pam_stack.so service=system-auth session required pam_loginuid.so # pam_selinux.so open should be the last session rule session required pam_selinux.so multiple open
