openssh-3.0p1 + Tru64 4.0G: sia_ses_authent() always returns 0 (failure)
Hi- I built openssh-3.0p1 on a Tru64 4.0G without any problem. The system uses enhanced security, so the sia_* routines are used by sshd. Unfortunately, password authentication fails because sia_ses_authent() returns 0 in auth-sia.c. The thing is, the password is CORRECT; I verified this by inserting debugging statements before the call to sia_ses_authent(). The call to sia_ses_init() succeeds. I checked some of the fields of the entity, but I don't know which fields should be filled in. The 'name' field gets correctly filled with the username, but the 'acctname' field is left empty, as is the 'pwd' field. Does someone know what the entity fields *should* look like after the call to sia_ses_init(), or have some other idea why the sia_ses_authent() call is failing?
