Solaris 10 7/07 HW Release Notes

Cannot Login Using GDM Unless Clearance is Set to admin_high (6432114)

The login fails when you log in to the Solaris Trusted Extensions Java Desktop Systems (Java DS) by using GDM. This failure is caused by the PAM configuration. The pam.conf(4) file does not contain the required entries for GDM.

On login, the following error message is displayed:


The system administrator has disabled access to 
the system temporarily

Workaround: Add the following two lines to the /etc/pam.conf file:


gdm account requisite pam_roles.so.1
gdm account required pam_unix_account.so.1

For information about the file format, see the pam.conf(4) man page.
