Re: pam debugging



Alex, thank you for your answer, which did not helped me at all but committed me to verify once again this point.

Yes I looked before at auth.log, but since the auth.log tells the same thing whether I activate debug in pam.d/common-auth or not (see below), I decided to ask here.

log WITHOUT ACTIVATING debug when I  auth via ssh :
May 12 14:35:49 wheezy-test sshd[20586]: Accepted password for root from 192.168.56.100 port 37456 ssh2
May 12 14:35:49 wheezy-test sshd[20586]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0)

log WITH debug ACTIVATED
May 12 14:37:35 wheezy-test sshd[20637]: Accepted password for root from 192.168.56.100 port 37457 ssh2
May 12 14:37:35 wheezy-test sshd[20637]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0)

So, the difference between debug activated or not in auth.log is not obviously different.

moreover, since I tried to catch every debug level message in /var/log/debug.log, I hoped that debug messages would go there too…

Did I still ask stupid question ? Please let me sleep tonight less stupid I woke up this morning.

Cedric
