From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: I had a hard time having a Linux client authenticate against samba with winbind. I eventually found it's because pam was not instructed to auth with pam_winbind.so in /etc/pam.d/login. Would be great system-config-authentication took care of that too! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): authconfig-4.6.5-3.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run system-config-authentication to enable winbind auth. 2. Have a look into /etc/pam.d/login Actual Results: /etc/pam.d/login has no reference to pam_winbind.so Expected Results: #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_securetty.so auth sufficient pam_winbind.so auth sufficient pam_unix.so use_first_pass auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth auth required pam_nologin.so account sufficient pam_winbind.so account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required pam_stack.so service=system-auth # pam_selinux.so close should be the first session rule session required pam_selinux.so close session required pam_stack.so service=system-auth session optional pam_console.so # pam_selinux.so open should be the last session rule session required pam_selinux.so multiple open Additional info:
This is not right - authconfig updates only the system-auth file and that's right - note that every other service stack file includes the system-auth stack by calling the pam_stack.so. I suppose there is something wrong with your configuration if the standard way doesn't work for you.
