Re: PAM not playing nicely with vsftpd and pam_exec.so

You could always that directive to common-session and try.

I've researched this feature extensively and need help. PAM is a difficult authentication program for me to thoroughly understand although I'm learning.

Running Debian Wheezy.

Have pam setup to trigger off an email when users login using sshd -- that works fine.  No problem using this command in the /etc/pam.d/sshd file:

session    optional     pam_exec.so /usr/local/bin/notify.sh

However, I need it to work with vsftpd and getting it to work with sshd was just a test.  However, I can't get it to work with vsftpd, the contents of /etc/pam.d/vsftpd are:

auth    required        pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/ftpusers onerr=succeed
@include common-account
@include common-session
@include common-auth
session    optional     pam_exec.so /usr/local/bin/notify-login.sh

What am I missing here?  Is pam even designed to work with vsftpd?  Running the following command indicates it's hooked into vsftpd, but pam_exec.so doesn't seem to want to play nicely with vsftpd.
