Hi everyone,
last week I switched my small home network from NIS to OpenLDAP (I am running
Fedora 13 on all machines). Everything went fine except the ability to change
LDAP user passords.
When I try to change the password as a (LADP-) user on a client I get
#> passwd
Changing password for user vp.
Current Password:
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
On the client side I get in /var/log/secure:
Oct 6 12:18:06 thal passwd: pam_unix(passwd:chauthtok): user "vp" does not
exist in /etc/passwd
Oct 6 12:18:43 thal passwd: last message repeated 2 times
Oct 6 12:18:43 thal passwd: pam_sss(passwd:chauthtok): Password change failed
for user vp: 28 (Module is unknown)
Oct 6 12:18:43 thal passwd: gkr-pam: couldn't update the login keyring
password: no old password was entered
I am obviously missing something in the pam-configuration (or in the slapd-
conf or wherever...). I do not have a clue where to search for the error.
Could somebody help, please?
Cheers
Volker
