/etc/pam.d/other configuration for proxmox

[ijcd]

My site is switching from a permissive /etc/pam.d/other (debian default) to a restrictive one. It seems that proxmox webapp login was using the "other" configuration.

What is the name of the pam.d module I would need to create for proxmox auth to work in a restrictive-by-default setup?

we currently use 'common-auth'

Ok, so it's not easy to control access just to proxmox using ldap or such unless it's the common login setup?

Do you have to login as "root" to proxmox consoles. What credentials are required by the login?

console access: currently there is only one user (console and web interface) - root.

I guess I don't really understand that questions. You set the password when you install the software (and we use pam).

I was looking for a way to allow a subset of users to login using their own credentials and be granted "root" access. We use ldap/kerberos, so it would be useful to setup a kerberos principal for proxmox and have users access it via GSS-API via the browser.

yes, see our roadmap.
