Hiho,
I'm running the package 9.0.7 from enterprisedb and have some problems getting the pam module to work on debian.
pam basically works - i just configured a more secure password policy.
the enterprisedb package has pam support included. at least i see with ldd that i knows the pam library.
the postgres service is named postgres so i created a file /etc/pam.d/postgres and added the lines
auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
i found in another mail thread.
I also tried to copy files from other predefined services like sudo or login.
the error is always:
root:/etc/pam.d# psql -U testuser postgres
psql.bin: FATAL: PAM authentication failed for user "testuser"
the line in pg_hba.conf is
# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD
local postgres testuser pam
any idea what's wrong here?
or does anybody have a good how-to?
thanks,
Uwe
