error in auth.log but can login; LDAP/PAM
- by Peter
I have a server running OpenLDAP. When I start a ssh-session I can log in without problems, but an error appears in the logs. This only happens when I log in with a LDAP account (so not with a system account such as root). Any help to eliminate these errors would be much appreciated.
The relevant piece from /var/log/auth.log
