openssh + pam on solaris

[steve j. kondik]

this is an interesting one.. i hope someone can help out.  i've got some
solaris 8 boxes set up with pam_ldap and nss_ldap using the iplanet ldap
sdk.  openssh works until i enable SSL on the ldap server.  when i turn
SSL on, the user auths, sees the lastlog message, sees the MOTD, then
nothing.  with an openssh snapshot, you see the lastlog message only. 
the weird thing is that you are actually in a shell at this point.  if
you type a bad command you'll see an error, but you won't see anything
else.

this setup works perfect with the commercial ssh software, just not with
openssh.

i can provide a box for debugging if any openssh expert would like to
check this out.
