 Posted: Tue Nov 25, 2008 6:22 pm Post subject: VMWare Server Console login/password always incorrect-solved |
 |
|
VMWare Server 1.0.8 on 32-bit Gentoo, with the Console running on 64-bit Vista. Cannot login, as the username & password are always incorrect, despite being typed in correctly every time.

I tried looking through portage to see if I need to emerge anything, but I couldn't find anything related to these files, and everything I did try, I already had installed.....
Any ideas what I need to emerge, or do to get this to work?

try to edit:
/etc/pam.d/vmware-authd
- i think the file should be there
edit:
| Code: | | /lib/security/pam_unix2.so |
to
| Code: | | /lib/security/pam_unix.so |
restart vmware-authd and try again |

Tried that apparently in the wrong file (/etc/vmware/pam.d/vmware-authd), and it still wanted pam_unix2.so (obviously, as I now found out as I re-read the post that I fixed the wrong file...)
So, at the time, I just symlinked pam_unix2 to pam_unix.so, problem solved anyway... |
