Hi Everybody,
We are upgrading to samba-3.0.2a with SEAM kerberos and iPlanet
Directory ldap server support. All the three servers runs in three different
physical solaris machies. We are able to connect the samba and ldap. We are
trying with security=user option in samba . For kerberos support, we thought of
a solution of authentication via pam -pamkrb5 module. but samba fails for a pam
authentication and it never contacts the kerberos server. actually we traced out
the function calls which tries for authentication, which sends a pam handler
with null passwords for authentication.
pls refer source/auth/auth.c and source/auth/pampass.c which has functions like
smb_pam_accountcheck in which pam_acctmgmt() sending a pamhandler pointer pamh.
The samba code has pointer pamh referring to the sturucture called pam_handle_t
. For the structure pam_handle_t , we found a type definition pam_handle in
security/pam_appl.h . and no more information in pam_handle is available. Is the
solaris pam modules lacks some files or our installation of solaris lacks some
files?
Any suggestions to proceed with pam authentication would be really helpful
regards
eccsamba
