Dear all, I can no longer log using SSH on a server machine. What I see on logging in is: [QUOTE]jablaka:~ web$ ssh -p19999 root@mail.test.com Last login: Tue Aug 16 11:41:01 2011 from herkules.test2.com Have a lot of fun... Connection to mail.test.com. closed.[/QUOTE] In the log file, I see: sshd: Accepted public key frrom... sshd: pam_unix2(sshd:session): session started for user root: service=sshd, tty=ssh, rhost=herkules.test2.com sshd: error: PAM: pam_open_session(): Permission denied When I start sshd -d, I see the following responses debug1: do_pam_account: called Accepted publickey for root from 10.0.0.1 port 42015 ssh2 debug1: monitor_child_preauth: root has been authenticated by privileged process debug1: PAM: establishing credentials PAM: pam_open_session(): Permission denied debug1: Entering interactive session for SSH2 The users ahould be authenticated against a (local) LDAP-Server, using SSSD; I can login via shell locally as well as via Samba, So I think, that it's not an LDAP issue. The history of theis failure was, that I had to fiddle around with the AppArmor tool before, because I have had installed AppArrmor unintentionally. I managed to make SSHD work with AppArmor; but as AppArmor caused thousands of other problems (samba, ldap, etc) I decided to switch off AppArmor again, with the side-effect, that everything works nicely now except SSHD... Would be nice to receive any hint.
