Description of problem: When trying to register a system to satellite with a user that uses PAM LDAP for authentication rhn_reg and up2date --register fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I have experienced this behavior on both Sat 4.20 and 4.15. How reproducible: yes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Configure the sat to use PAM LDAP AUTH: -add pam_auth_service = rhn-satellite to /etc/rhn/rhn.conf -create a /etc/pam.d/rhn-satellite file: #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_env.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so no_user_check auth required /lib/security/pam_deny.so account required /lib/security/pam_ldap.so no_user_check -edit /etc/ldap.cong to talk to your ldap server 2. Create a user on the satellite and check use PAM auth 3. Run rhn_register form a client machine and use the ldap user you just created Actual results: rhn_register crashes machien does not register Expected results: machine registers Additional info:
Can't reproduce, David & I believe its a problem with the installed satellite.
