  • 1.  PAM and NIS in AIX

    Hi,

    I'm pretty new in the PAM topic. I'm planning to test an application that uses PAM as authentication method. The test is going to be done on an AIX machine that is currently using NIS as the authentication method for the users. Reading the PAM implementation on AIX (pam_aix) for AIX 5.3....

    Is pam_aix supporting NIS?
    Is there any instructions that I could follow up to configure it in that case?...

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi again,

    I've made some tests on an AIX 5.3 machine. I've enabled PAM (login.cfg), made use of the /etc/pam.conf file and enabled also the debug.

    Local and remote users can login without any problem. The pam debug log shows the right entries for PAM authentication.

    Just to help for the others....
