Hello,
I'm pretty sure I've done all the necessary steps to be able to ssh to
my FreeBSD box using pam_ldap, but I'm getting "Invalid credentials"
errors whenever I try (I can successfully perform an ldapsearch
operation though).
Here are snippets from my config:
[/etc/nsswitch.conf]
passwd: files ldap
[/etc/pam.d/sshd]
auth sufficient /usr/local/lib/pam_ldap.so
auth required pam_unix.so
[/usr/local/etc/ldap.conf]
base o=brookes
uri ldap://ldap.brookes.ac.uk:389/
scope one
And here is the error:
Jul 18 19:19:41 vh1a9f58 sshd[19601]: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as
user "uid=p0036343,o=Brookes" (Invalid credentials)
Incidentally, the following ldapsearch query _IS_ successful, and
returns me some details about user 'jsmith'
ldapsearch -H ldap://ldap.brookes.ac.uk -b 'o=brookes' -x -W -D
'uid=me,o=Brookes' uid=jsmith
I'm really stumped on this one... can anyone help please?
Many thanks,
Steve :)
