[jadmin] PAM Authentication

[Bob Larsen]

I don't have any /var/log/auth.log
Ive looked through most of the logs I have, and don't see anything that looks like it came from pam

I have, however, gotten PAM to authenticate AD users for console logins.

This works for:

Username
Password

But does not work for:

Username at domain.tld

or

Username at DOMAIN.TLD

I've copied /etc/pam.d/login to /etc/pam.d/jabberd, but I still cannot login with a client.

I know the client has to pass "user at realm" to c2s, but what username does c2s pass to pam?

The c2s logs show "auth failed: username=user"

To me this says that it is trying to login as:

Username
Password

But this is all getting very confusing

You should have more descriptive messages in your PAM logs in /var/log
(I guess /var/log/auth.log or something similar.)
