Problem with running custom authentication script
- From: "jackso95@xxxxxxxxxxx" <jackso95@xxxxxxxxxxx>
- Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2007 22:40:45 -0000
This was working successfully in AIX 4.3.1.0. After upgrading the
machine and OS to AIX 5.2.0.0, the custom authentication failed.
I used the following entries and script:
/etc/security/login.cfg :
auth_method:
program = /usr/bin/user_limit.scp
/etc/security/user ("default" section):
auth1 = SYSTEM,auth_method
#/usr/bin/user_limit.scp
#!/bin/ksh
USER=$1
LOGNUM=`cat /logins.dat | grep $USER | awk '{print $2}'`
if [[ $LOGNUM = '' ]]
then
LOGNUM=1
fi
NUM=`who | grep -w -c $USER`
if [[ $NUM -lt $LOGNUM ]]
then
exit 0
fi
echo "permission denied ... you already have $NUM login(s) for" $USER
"."
exit 255
Problem:
After entering the user name and password, the following error is
shown. If I comment out the lines in the login.cfg and user files, I
can login successfully.
AIX Version 5
(C) Copyrights by IBM and by others 1982, 2005.
login: root
root's Password:

Thanks in advance for your help.
