/etc/pam.d/crond

Code: Select all

#
# The PAM configuration file for the cron daemon
#
#
# No PAM authentication called, auth modules not needed
account    required   pam_access.so
account    include    password-auth
session    required   pam_loginuid.so
session    include    password-auth
auth       include    password-auth
This looks normal. However, the user nagios doesn't appear to be able to execute cron - obviously. For the time being, I've modified the cron entry to run as root to isolate the issue and everything ran just fine. This server authenticates against LDAP and I believe that is the cause of the problem. I will work this out internally since it doesn't appear to be a Nagios issue. Thank you very much for sticking with me through it. I very much appreciate it!
