Re: [Tiki-devel] PAM authentication -- first login attempt fails, but second works

Hi Scott

Sorry you're not getting much reposes, i guess no one else is using this feature (i never have).

I know people do use the LDAP authentication mode, maybe a similar thing happens with that?

Sorry not to be able to help, just letting you know people do read these emails! :)
