From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.8) Gecko/20020204 Description of problem: Attempts to login using a NIS/YP account return an error message that states that the account is expired. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Configure Red Hat 7.2.92 as a NIS/YP client. 2.Login using a NIS/YP account. Actual Results: This is logged in /var/log/secure: Mar 21 16:20:02 hostname login: User account has expired Also, the user login is rejected. Expected Results: The user should be able to login. Additional info: This may or may not be a pam problem. It could be a ypbind problem. I suggest pam, because I executed strace against a login process to record the system calls that the login process makes when a NIS user login fails. I noticed in the output serveral references to pam. Please note that local user accounts are able to login. In both cases (NIS and local) I am using shadow password without MD5 encryption. No account expiration has been set in either case. I also tested by setting an expiration date in the future. The login still failed.
Same here. The same configuration works fine with 7.2. I'm using plain crypt, no MD5. NIS doesn't use shadow passwords. Downgrading ypbind to the 7.2 version didn't help. So I also downgraded to pam-0.75-19 from the 7.2 updates. Still the same message. I then went back to the original 7.2 version (0.75-14). Now I didn't get account expired but FAILED LOGIN. However, IIRC this version had pam issues.
This report is too old. Please retest with current Fedora Core releases.
