When we installed OpenSSH 2.1.1p4 on our Solaris systems, our users noticed that it did not honor password expiration consistently with other Solaris login services. The patch below is against OpenSSH 2.2.0p1 and adds support for PAM password changes on expiration via pam_chauthtok(). A brief summary of changes: auth-pam.c: * change declaration of pamh to "static pam_handle_t *pamh",

Trying 2.1.1p2 on HP-UX 11 (trusted system) I get: Jul 3 14:24:53 robinson sshd[1236]: debug: Encryption type: 3des Jul 3 14:24:53 robinson sshd[1236]: debug: Received session key; encryption turned on.

Anyone out there know more about PAM under Solaris 7/x86 then I do, that can maybe tackle this, and/or suggestion a route to take to fix? After doing some debugging, it looks like the problem is a seg fault at: sshd.c:void pam_cleanup_proc(void *context) =========================================== debug("PAM_retval(open_session) about to run"); pam_retval =

I've attached two patches. The first just changes the output of "ssh -V" to print that it was built against rsaref if libRSAglue (which is built as part of openssl only when it is built against rsaref) is present at build-time. The second adds appropriate calls to pam_setcred() in sshd. Without them, our systems can't access AFS because the PAM modules only get tokens at a

Hello, all- Apparently, under Solaris (I can personally confirm SunOS 5.7 and 5.8), pam_open_session will generate a segfault if PAM_TTY is not set. The obvious symptom of this is that OpenSSH 2.9.9p2 will segfault on any operation that does not request a tty (do_exec_no_pty). Based on a quick google search, this seems to have been encountered by others, though the specific symptoms seem to

I was browsing the OpenSSH sources (which are very readable, thankyou very much) and noticed that PAM was only being told what host the user is logging in from for account processing - not for password processing. As I can see no reason not to put this in start_pam this is exactly what I have done - and attached a patch to this effect. This allows PAM to fill in rhost= in its audit messages

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hi, I''ve got several replies, thank you for them. Let me summarize: o Many people say there is a PAMified version of ssh available at ftp://ftp.replay.com/pub/crypto/redhat/SRPMS (the source) ftp://ftp.replay.com/pub/crypto/redhat/i386 (Intel binaries) (there are analogous paths for the other architectures). The packages are made by Jan

Currently, OpenSSH prints the message: "Warning: You password has expired, please change it now" if the password has expired. It would be nice if the user could/had to change password before continuing, like with Linux console login. I've tried to make an patch, but it doesn't work.

>Okay, this appears to be a problem with pam_unix.so - the code in >pam_sm_open_session is written with the assumption that the tty name is of >the form "/dev/" + something else on the end. I'm not sure why the pam_sm_open_session in pam_unix on Solaris now does this: /* report error if ttyn or rhost are not set */ if ((ttyn == NULL) || (rhost == NULL))

Hello, appended is a patch that makes it possible to use PAM both for password authentication and TIS (i.e. s/key or opie or any other interactive challenge/response scheme). I have developed this starting from the patch at http://www.debian.org/Bugs/db/61/61906.html on Debian with openssh-2.1.1p4-3. After configuring ssh with --with-pam-tis, there are two PAM services, "sshd" and

While configuring my server with dovecot I noticed that the PAM authentication driver does not support the username_format option as does the password file driver. This didn't seem too hard to implement so I through together a patch. As you can see in the attached patch I only modify the username sent to PAM. Despit doing this I run into the domain lost

A little problem, which is bugging me: when using PAM authentication, Dovecot (0.99.5) does not set the PAM_RHOST item, so the PAM modules cannot know who the client is. We need this for some PAM module doing access control. Changing passdb-pam.c to pam_set_item it seems trivial, but I'm bugged as to how to get the client name from there. It seems not to be available in the auth_request

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi OpenSSH'ers, I am emailing you to ask is it possible to record failed passwords attempts and log them to syslog? Are there patches available for this? Has anyone managed to do this before? Are there alternitive methods? Many Thanks, A - -- Alan Neville, Postgraduate Education Officer, DCU Students' Union 2009/2010, BS.c Computer

I hit a small snag using Dovecot-imapd smoothly in my environment with maildir and most of my accounts in LDAP. Since the accounts are created through a web interface on another server home directories on the mail server don't get created automatically. There's the handy pam module pam_mkhomedir.so to automagically create home directories, but unfortunatly Dovecot wasn't calling

As many of you know, OpenSSH 3.7.X, unlike previous versions, makes PAM authentication take place in a separate process or thread (launched from sshpam_init_ctx() in auth-pam.c). By default (if you don't define USE_POSIX_THREADS) the code "fork"s a separate process. Or if you define USE_POSIX_THREADS it will create a new thread (a second one, in addition to the primary thread). The

to improve forensic log info i want to set the PAM_RHOST value to the remote ip (which pam logs as rhost=foo in failure messages). i didn't look to see if anything has been done in this way on CVS because i'm still on 0.99.10.6. below is a bit of a hack. in some sense the remote_ip might make more sense in the AUTH_LOGIN_REQUEST_NEW packet rather than the continue packet... but that

Can't compile sshd.c because of pam errors. The errors are attached below, and I apologize for the >75 chars a line. RH4.2, with the latest updates, runs pam-0.57-5.

>Neither the Sun PAM documentation nor the Linux-PAM documentation >describe the semantics of PAM_REINITIALIZE_CREDS in any useful detail.
