One thing that could affect this is whether 'getent shadow' also shows the user information. If 'getent passwd' show x as a password hash and no shadow entry is present pam_unix will block logins. > What else can I check, which other config files do I need to look at? Any information from the logs as to which PAM module blocks the login would be helpful. Another thing that could cause problems what LDAP data changes is nscd. -- -- arthur - arthur@arthurdejong.org - http://arthurdejong.org/ --
