similar to: PAM configuration?

CentOS-6.6 Is there any command line program that determines and reports what pam_cracklib.so returns for a given password; subject to variation in the command line options and values provided? For example, assuming a cli driver program called cli_driver_pgm: cli_driver_pgm pam_cracklib.so difok=8 minlen=14 dcredit=3 ucredit=3 lcredit=3 ocredit=3 minclass=2 maxrepeat=3 maxsequence=3

Hello, I would like to enforce some level of password complexity when users change their password. I have a Samba PDC running on Debian set to sync Unix passwords. I'm trying to get Samba to work with cracklib, but it isn't going well. Here is what I've tried: Installed libpam-cracklib, compiled examples/auth/crackcheck and copied the binary to /usr/local/sbin. I added the

Hi When I enable a box to do authentication using LDAP it breaks cron for users like jboss. I get the following in /var/log/secure Sep 14 15:25:01 exoipatest01 crond[7214]: pam_access(crond:account): access denied for user `jboss' from `cron' I have the following in /etc/ldap.conf nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap,named,avahi,haldaemon,dbus,tomcat,radiusd,news,mailman,nscd,jboss

Hi everybody! I am having an issue regarding my samba/pam configuration. I am trying to sync my unix/samba passwords, but everything i found online doesn't help. My System runs Gentoo/Samba 3.5.8 as PDC(roaming profiles host and so on) , and WinXP Clients. Domainjoin and Login work fine. But I want to change the Passwords from the Windows interface. When I try to change the password using

Hi, I have some databases running on CentOS4 with users accessing the shell (bash), so I'd like to strong the security on my server in user's accounts and passwords.. I mean, enforcing strong passwords, min/max age passwords, locking passwords when you fail 3 times, and all this stuff. Is there any package which do this work? Any tutorial? Thanks in advance Regards Israel

A non-root user is trying to change their password but cannot because of the message: BAD PASSWORD: it is based on a dictionary word They swear its not true. Anyways, I was just curious where (if anywhere) the config file lies for this functionality. Do you know? -mike

I have been ready everything I can regarding this setup but am having a problem that I am unsure of. I am unable to authenticate any user despite the following commands working: %> getent passwd <username> %> wbinfo -u %> wbinfo -g With the getent passwd I am able to see all of my UID/GID being mapped via winbdind to the rid of the domain user account. This command fails: %>

We have a small Ubuntu 9.10 file server in a large Win 2003/2008 domain. There is no X nor web browser in the server. I have rights to join machines to the domain, but I'm not an Administrator There is about 10 users in this server, who want to authenticate with domain passwords when they mount their home directories to WindowsXP workstations. The ssh passwords should be local and separated

Okay - I've got samba working as a PDC with and ldap backend. I want to have some users not be in ldap (like the built in stuff like cyrus, mail, lp etc) I can get that to work with the pam_ldap and pam_unix but pam_smbpass doesn't seem to return user_unknown as i expect for users who are not in the ldap database does this make sense? --- pam_smb_passwd.c 12 Feb 2002 15:56:19

This seems to be common thread on the list, but I'm pulling my hair out and have to ask.. I've been following a couple of guides and using AD to authenticate users on my linux system. These include the ubuntu guide -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto - https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_Samba_as_an_AD_Domain_Member -

Hi, I have tested the current snapshot portable release (dated Jan 9 2004). configuration has: UsePAM yes PasswordAuthentication no ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes UsePrivilegeSeparation yes two problems: first pam_motd does not work anymore. second, I needed a quick way to disable normal user logins without disabling admin accounts (members of group wheel). the best option i could come

Having issues adapting our 3.4 configuration that worked very well using idmap rid in 3.3. It seems like winbind does not cache the credentials despite all of the settings being present. I can set winbind offline via smbcontrol and have it work, but if I reboot the machine (important for my laptops) off the network winbind complains that it can't find the logon server. When disconnected and

Hi Everybody, maybe we are just too stupid, but for me it seems that there is some problem with holding passwords completely sync between *NIX-world and WIN-world when I use LDAP & Samba. If a user changes a password under Windows, with "passwd chat" the *NIX-Password (attribute: userPassword) can be changend very well besides the both Samba-LDAP-attributes lmPassword and

Hey gang, I seem to be having a brain disconnect on how to get the Augeas type to manage things that have multiple values (i.e. an Augeas tree) via Puppet. If I run this in augtool: augtool> set /files/etc/ssh/sshd_config/AllowGroups/1000 sshuser augtool> save I see this in /etc/ssh/sshd_config: AllowGroups sshuser However, if I try this in an Augeas type: augeas {

Hi I am trying to lock users after 3 attempts and then set the timeout before they can log in again. I thought i could achieve this with auth required pam_tally.so deny=3 unlock_time=600 in /etc/pam.d/system-auth but it seems to not be the case - I cant find a working config for this anywhere and i wonder if anyone has one they can share? thanks

Hi all, Is there any way to automatically update the samba password when a user changes his unix account password using the passwd command. I want samba to look in passwd file for authentication. I dont want to create two accounts one for local unix and then for the samba. I am not planning to deploy ldap as a solution. Is there any workaround. Anish

Hi, We are planning to move all of our win2k server (currenty around 50!) alongwith AD to Linux, we are planning to use LDAP based samba domain controllers for authentication and file/print serving. We are doing a pilot and things are fine till now, just one simple problem, what should we do with our password policy, we have three restrictions relating passwords minimum password length password

I''m trying to change the password complexity requirements in pam.d/system-auth using augeas. I can append the values (lcredit=-1, ucredit=-1, etc) onto the correct place, but if another value is already present (i.e. lcredit=-2), the onlyif match statement doesn''t seem to support checking regular expressions inside of strings. How do I check that any numeric value exists in the
