Hi

I want to setup Scalix 11 community edition on opensuse 10.1

I want to use the external winbind pam module to authenticate users.
Here is the result without om_om2authid:
Dec 28 17:42:12 linux pam_winbind[25869]: request failed: No such user, PAM error was User not known to the underlying authentication module (10), NT error was NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER
Dec 28 17:42:29 linux pam_winbind[25870]: pam_winbind: pam_sm_authenticate
Dec 28 17:42:29 linux pam_winbind[25870]: Verify user `testlinuxtest'
Dec 28 17:42:29 linux pam_winbind[25870]: request failed: No such user, PAM error was User not known to the underlying authentication module (10), NT error was NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER
Dec 28 17:42:29 linux pam_winbind[25870]: user `testlinuxtest' not found

As written in the manual the module om_om2authid is needed to change the format
of the username.

With om_om2authid enabled I get thi output:
Dec 28 17:39:42 linux pam_winbind[25861]: request failed: No such user, PAM error was User not known to the underlying authentication module (10), NT error was NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER

For me it looks like om_om2authid doesn't change the username it just clears the string completly.

I also tested the pam_smbauth module:
Dec 28 17:53:41 linux PAM_smbpass[25897]: username [test@domain.de] obtained
Dec 28 17:53:41 linux PAM_smbpass[25897]: Failed to find entry for user test@domain.de.

The username is OK but why the domain has been added?

Cheers,

If you run the command where User Name is the correct user, and check the value of "Authentication ID". That's the value that om_om2authid puts into the username for PAM.

Cheers

You are right:
linux:/var/opt/scalix/lx/s/sys # omshowu -n "test"
Authentication ID: test@domain.de

I think winbind doesn't show the username because it doesn't
like a "@" in the username.

I was able to change Authentication ID with " ommodu -o test --authid test"
and it is working now.

Thank you for your help.
