Bonjour,

I have installed the module mod_auth_pam for apache on a FC3 server.

In /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf I added:

<Directory "/var/www/html/toto">
AuthPAM_Enabled on
AuthType Basic
AuthName "secure area"
require group cdcd
</Directory>

and created the directory /var/www/html/toto

When I want to access this directory a dialog box is opened asking for
login and password. I put my linux login name and password but it
doesn't work, the dialog box come back every time and if I give up, I
get this message:

Authorization Required

This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the
document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad
password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the
credentials required.

What is missing, in my configuration?

/etc/pam.d/httpd file is:

#%PAM-1.0
auth       required     /lib/security/pam_unix.so
account    required     /lib/security/pam_unix.so

And there two line in the httpd.conf file for this module:

LoadModule auth_pam_module modules/mod_auth_pam.so
LoadModule auth_sys_group_module modules/mod_auth_sys_group.so


Thank you for any help.
