Title
FAILURE: 608 Pam errors when running vastool status -
Description
When "vastool status" is run the following errors are being reported:
FAILURE: 608 Pam <password-auth><session> not configured for QAS.FAILURE: 608 Pam <system-auth><session> not configured for QAS.Running "vastool configure pam" doesn't fix the errors. -
Cause
The session stanza for some of the PAM configuration files wasn't being configured because the pam_unix.so module which QAS uses to determine where to put the pam_vas.so configuration was missing. -
Resolution
The pam_unix.so line typically goes at the end of the session stanza, like in the following example:session optional pam_keyinit.so revokesession required pam_limits.sosession [success=1 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so service in crond quietsession required pam_unix.soIf the pam_unix.so line is added back, then after "vastool configure pam" is run again the issue will be corrected.
