UX 11.11 rexecd not working

[Rainer von Bongartz]

HI,

after upgrading from 11.0 to 11i I am not able to run remote command (rsh, rlogin ..) on this server.
I have the following error message in syslog:

remshd[27407]: load_modules: no module present
remshd[27407]: PAM Status - 4, PAM Error Message - System
error

Any hints appreciated

Regards
Rainer

Hi Rainer,

Have you checked to see if there are any patches for rexecd or PAM on 11.11? May be a bug.

Otherwise, do you have PAM configured? If not, maybe you should check /etc/pam.conf to make sure it's the default, you may want to copy it from /usr/newconfig/etc.

Hope this helps,

James

Have you tried copying /usr/newconfig/etc/pam.conf to /etc/pam.conf ?

It could be /usr/newconfig/etc/pam.conf file didnt get updated to the 11.i version during the upgrade (if applicable) checksum of the pam.conf files would be useful to check this out .....

Thanks guys,

I copied /usr/newconfig/etc/pam.conf to /etc/pam.conf

and got rid of the error.

BUT: I'm using the ldap-ux services which need a configured version of pam.conf.

I will try to re-install ldap-ux which might solve the problem.

Regard
Rainer

Rainer, did you really upgrade or do a fresh install of 11i? If you used an upgrade option, then this is why we try to dissuade people from doing such. If you did a fresh install, did you install the application cd's also? If so, what packages did you install?
