Hi,

Facing issue with the authenticating users against Windows 2008
ActiveDirectory. Joining/leaving domain and getting user and groups (id
<user>, getent group <group name>) works fine. But PAM authentication
through pam_winbind fails with below error.

Sep 25 11:02:15 host sshd[74473]: pam_winbind(sshd:auth): getting password
(0x00000390)
Sep 25 11:02:15 host sshd[74473]: pam_winbind(sshd:auth): pam_get_item
returned a password
Sep 25 11:02:15 host sshd[74473]: pam_winbind(sshd:auth): request
wbcLogonUser failed: WBC_ERR_AUTH_ERROR, PAM error: PAM_SYSTEM_ERR (4),
NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED, Error message was: Access denied
Sep 25 11:02:15 host sshd[74473]: pam_winbind(sshd:auth): internal module
error (retval = PAM_SYSTEM_ERR(4), user = 'user1')

client ldap sasl wrapping = sign
realm = SAMPLE.NET
template homedir = /home/users
template shell = /bin/bash
winbind enum groups = no
winbind enum users = no
winbind offline logon = yes


"id user1" and "kinit users1" works too. Only authentication fails when
user trying to logon through sshd.

Has anyone came across similar issue?

Thanks,
