Problem in PAM model for Solaris 10

Hi,

Can you please let me know the diffrence in "pam_dial_auth.so.1" from solaris 9 to solaris 10.

we are using the pam model for authentication purpose in our software.

It was working fine for solaris 9 but while implementing our software in solaris 10 it is not authenticating.

pam_authenticate method always return "PAM_SERVICE_ERR" though valid password is given

Also we are getting the same error in the /var/adm/message as follows

tail -f /var/adm/message

CwmGs[3744]: [ID 427199 user.error] pam_dial_auth: terminal-device not specifiedby login, returning Error in underlying service module.

Output:

# uname -a

SunOS columbia6 5.10 Generic_125100-07 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60

But if we replace /usr/lib/security/pam_dial_auth.so.1 in solaris10 with solaris9 version, it is authenticating properly without any issues.

Please let me know how shall we proceed with solaries 10 and what changes that we have to make.

Thanks,

Naveen.S.

I believe it's totally different autentication method for Solaris 9 and 10. I also encounter before when my Solaris 10 /etc/pam.conf corrupted, i copy /etc/pam.conf from solaris 9 box, it's not working. Sign ... I spend 1 week to troubleshoot it and after all, i copy another /etc/pam.conf from Solaris 10 box, finally it's working fine =.=''
