Hi
I'm using a Perl script to call PAM to authenticate using Winbind to contact
a Windows ADS. This is on a Debian Sarge box. The machine has been added to
the domain (using kerberos and net ads join command). Winbindd is configured
successfully and I get this when I try and run wbinfo -a
wbinfo -a abhay_pradhan%******
plaintext password authentication succeeded
challenge/response password authentication succeeded
However, when I use the Perl script (Authen::SimplePam package and calling
the service foobar), the winbind log shows that the user is authenticated
only using Plain-text. Why not challenge-response?
******************************************
package FOO::PAM;
use Authen::SimplePam;
use strict;
sub is_good_pam
{
my ($user, $pass) = @_;
my $service = "foobar";
my $authn = new Authen::SimplePam();
if ($authn->auth_user($user, $pass, $service) eq 1) {
debug("success, returning 1");
return 1;
}
else {
debug("failure, returning 0 with user=$user and pass=$pass");
return 0;
}
}
1;
******************************************
Here is the output from the winbind log.
[2005/09/24 11:40:24, 5] nsswitch/winbindd_pam.c:winbindd_pam_auth(361)
Plain-text authentication for user abhay_pradhan returned NT_STATUS_OK (PAM:
0)
Is there something I'm doing wrong? Here is the relevant foobar service
