Subject: An enhancement request for Apache2::AuthenNIS
Date: Sun, 13 Jul 2008 17:47:37 +0300
To: bug-apache2-authennis [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Sagi Ben-Akiva <sagi [...] graphtech.co.il>
Hello, I'm willing to use this perl module to enable Apache NIS authentication at my webserver. But the problem is that when the user logs in, he get a "bad password" error message. Looking at Apache2::AuthenNIS I found that the module compares the result of 'crypt' with the typed with the second field of the entry returned by Net::NIS::yp_match( $domain, "passwd.byname", $name ); The problem is that I use shadowed passwords and the second field returned by the above line is always 'x'. Thank you, Sagi. -- Sagi Ben-Akiva - sagi@graphtech.co.il GraphTech Computer Systems, www.graphtech.co.il Tel: +972-9-9703334 Mob: +972-54-4970634
