[Freeipa-users] Does Solaris 11 work as client to IPA server?

Hi,

This is interesting. When I tested Solaris 11 ssh worked, and su - testuser worked. However
console login did not work giving some PAM errors.

Could you please share your entire pam.conf file?

Is this Solaris 11 or Solaris 11.1?



Regards,
Siggi
