Error with OpenOTP Plugin for Linux PAM (OpenOTP 1.1)

[Jason Luttgens]

Hello,

I just compiled the OpenOTP Plugin for Linux PAM (OpenOTP 1.1) integration plugin, however I am seeing this error in my system logs:

Apr  5 20:46:28 mysql sshd[2316]: PAM unable to dlopen(pam_openotp.so): /lib/security/pam_openotp.so: undefined symbol: openotp_terminate

Apr  5 20:46:28 mysql sshd[2316]: PAM adding faulty module: pam_openotp.so

And then authentication fails immediately without contacting the OpenOTP server.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jason

Did you compile and install the libopenotp-1.0.7 first?
If you use the pre-compiled version, please try to self-compile...

[Jason Luttgens]

Sure did. Both (libopenotp and pam_openotp) seemed to compile fine and I installed via make, make install.

This is an Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS 64-bit server running kernel 3.2.0-39-generic.

Did anyone ever get this figured out? I'm running into the same issue, Ubuntu 12.04, self-compiled libopenotp and pam_openotp.

Thanks!

Looks like the PAM so module does not manage find the libopenotp.

Did you try to copy the /usr/lib64/libopenotp.so* to /lib64/ hust to check if it's a matter of linker path.

[Kyle Duren]

I copied over the library by hand to correct place and it appears to work, maybe the make install isn't putting it there correctly or something....

Nice to see that works this way. We will update the module to handle this...

Can you test this pam module source: http://www.rcdevs.com/downloads/index.php?id=Testing+Versions

First to drop the libopenotp from /lib64/

Recompile this pam module and make install.

It should be able to use the libopenotp from /usr/lib64/

Please tell if that works on your ubuntu.
