Default Re: OpenSSH public key problem with Solaris 10 and LDAP users?

Since you are using Solaris, and the problem is with old users, added with
the PADL MigrationTools, vs new users, this might be a userPassword
attribute issue in LDAP.

The PADL will add the old password to LDAP using the string: {crypt}crypted-password
where crypted-password was copied from /etc/shadow or NIS.

If you used some other tool to add new users to ldap with a userPassword
(or no userPasswrod) it might be adding a value which the Solaris pam
considers to be a locked account. So look at how you added the
new users to ldap.

Test as *root* with:

ldaplist -l username

It should have a line with
userPassword: {crypt}crypted-password

If its not{crypt}something
then try changing it to use {crypt}

the getpw.c program I sent yesterday should return (assuming the username
is not also in the local /etc/passwd file):
useranme:x:...
username:crypted-password:...
