Hi, I have the securID patch applied to openssh3.4p-1 and it's compiled with pam. The problem I'm getting is that SecurID auth works OK, but normal password auth doesn't. I narrowed down the failure to the following section in auth-pam.c : __pampasswd = password; pamstate = INITIAL_LOGIN; pam_retval = do_pam_authenticate( options.permit_empty_passwd == 0 ? PAM_DISALLOW_NULL_AUTHTOK : 0); but I can't see how this works. Can anyone enlighten me please? I know that the password is correct but pam_retval is still not equal to PAM_SUCCESS. Cheers, Ed. _________________________________________________________________ Join the world?s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com
