pam_check_host_attr + PAM configuration

by zf () :: Rate this Message:

Hi all,

I'm struggling for the past few days to setup host-based authentication on a CentOS 5 system using pam_check_host_attr directive but i really cannot understand how to make it work. I lack expertise in PAM so i'm trying many configurations found on the net about that subject but still none of these works either.

My /etc/ldap.conf is pretty simple and straightforward:
-------------------------
host 127.0.0.1
base dc=people,dc=domain
scope sub
ssl no
pam_check_host_attr yes
-------------------------

partial /etc/nsswitch.conf :

-------------------
passwd: files ldap
shadow: files ldap
group: files ldap
-------------------

partial /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

--------------
UsePAM yes
--------------

If anyone could guide me to setup PAM to support and respect this attribute, would be really appreciated.

TIA
