Description topical 2014-02-28 14:24:14 UTC
Description of problem:

I use strongswan as a XAuth/RSA server and need PAM for authentication/authorization. The corresponding plugin (xauth-pam) is not compiled in.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

strongswan-5.1.1-4.el6.x86_64.rpm

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. define a connection with "rightauth2=xauth-pam" on the server
2. try to establish an IPSec connection to the server

Actual results:

Server produces "no XAuth method found for 'pam'" in syslog.

Expected results:

Authentication should be forwarded to PAM.

Additional info:

Patch attached to fix spec-file.
