[hylafax-users] PAM Authentication

["Kimble Young" <kimble@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've been having some issues setting up PAM authentication with hylafax
4.2.0 beta 2.

I've been trying to use WHFC to connect and am only successful when logging
in as root.

Syslog shows:

Jun 25 17:20:16 asterisk hylafax(pam_unix)[6380]: authentication failure;
logname= uid=0 euid=10 tty= ruser= rhost=  user=ultimate
Jun 25 17:20:18 asterisk hfaxd[6380]: Login failed from kimble
[192.168.0.244], ultimate

Everything seems to point to a problem with PAM configuration but no matter
what i try there's no luck.  The most basic config file for
/etc/pam.d/hylafax is below:

#%PAM-1.0
auth     required       pam_unix.so
account  required       pam_unix.so
password required       pam_unix.so
session  required       pam_unix.so

I've also tried with just auth, account lines.

Is it possible that hylafax is trying to authenticate uid=0 as seen in the
syslog line above?

Can anyone help me with getting it working for all local system accounts?
