[Spacewalk-list] PAM winbind support

The problem was something very silly it seems
In my /etc/rhn/rhn.conf I had the following entry

pam_auth_service = rhn-satellite

However my pam file was called /etc/pam.d/rhn_satellite
It would be nice if rhn was able to throw an exception if it can't read the pam file.
After change the file name to rhn_satellite everything worked fine.

Or it could be selinux you may want to check your audit log.
And just incase you are not familiar with selinux the audit2allow tool along with the fixfiles tool are really simple

It should still work fine; the 1.7 upgrade didn't break the two servers I have using winbind.  Remember that the process doing the PAM conversation is non-root unlike most other PAM-enabled services, so it may just be a simple permissions issue.  The likely culprit is the system keytab if you have Kerberos enabled.

Does spacewalk 1.7 still support PAM w/winbind ?

After doing an upgrade to 1.7 I'm getting the following error in my tomcat logs

2012-05-01 13:39:07,267 [TP-Processor2] WARN  com.redhat.rhn.domain.user.legacy.UserImpl - PAM login for user User XXXXX (id 25, org_id 1) failed with error Authentication failure.

I'm no longer able to login via spacewalk web with my PAM winbind setup.
If I disable PAM authentication works fine.
