I have installed Samba 2.0.6 and everything is working wonderfully except
for some PAM authentication problems on my Debian potato samba server.
When a client tries to connect to a share on my server
I get lots of the following before I am ever asked for the password or
the connection times out, this take a few minutes to happen. (My username is
'servis', my machine is 'brian', and the guest user is
'samba')
Nov 13 19:38:27 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
servis for samba service
Nov 13 19:38:29 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
samba for samba service
Nov 13 19:38:31 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
samba for samba service
Nov 13 19:38:33 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
servis for samba service
Nov 13 19:38:35 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
servis for samba service
Nov 13 19:38:37 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
samba for samba service
Nov 13 19:38:39 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
samba for samba service
Nov 13 19:38:57 brian PAM_unix[3048]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
servis for samba service
If the share requires a password it will fail to accept the
password once the password dialog pops up on the client after another
round of the above messages.
What do I need to add to /etc/pam.d/samba to get this to work? I am
new to pam and not sure what modules I need or how to configure them.
Thanks in advance,
Brian Servis
