|
|
Hi,
I just upgraded to ubuntu 11.04, and now whenever I ssh in from where ever I happen to be, it logs me in, and then immediately kicks me off. The only way I can get into my server now is with the linode shell. I know it logs me in, but it doesn't let me stay logged in. I am also getting this error: error: PAM: pam_open_session(): Module is unknown
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
-Michael. |

Hi,
Anyone have any ideas? -- I'm stuck using lish until I can get this resolved.
Thanks,

Hi,
That wasn't quite it, as I'm not getting those same errors. I'm simply getting the module is unknown, which googling produces almost nothing. (and yes, I've googled a bunch.)
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
-Michael. |

Hi,
I just remembered something. When I was upgrading, I accidentally didn't say install the package maintainer's version of /etc/security/something.conf, perhaps this could have something to do with it? If so, how do I get that file back to the default?
Thanks,
-Michael. |

Hi,
I'm still really confused about how I can fix this, and googling is no help.
Anyone know?
Thanks,
-Michael. |

Do you happen to be doing anything with LDAP?

I can only think that you have something trying to use PAM and the upgrade either didn't upgrade PAM or removed PAM. I can only suggest grepping through /etc to see where anything PAM might be getting called from.
Most likely /etc/ssh/sshd_config |
