Operating Systems Linux SuSE "scp" access denied:/etc/security/access.conf Post 302310180 by sysgate on Friday 24th of April 2009 01:37:46 AM
Old 04-24-2009
Hello, I hope it's not too late. First, to answer your question - I don't think that with the current configuration you can overcome this security limitation. Probably those rules are enforced by your system administrator, so the best way is to communicate with the responsible person how to achieve your scp task. Probably, you can have a special designated user only for that task that will be allowed only scp from this host to a specific host, if your task's requirements are so simple. Else, perhaps you can go with more advanced rule, such as : -: ALL EXCEPT root user:10.191.4.244 - where IP address is fictional. This line means that ssh will only accept login access from root/user from IP address 10.191.4.244. If that is acceptable, you will need a modifications to PAM file as well.

PAM_TIME(8)							 Linux-PAM Manual						       PAM_TIME(8)

NAME
pam_time - PAM module for time control access SYNOPSIS
pam_time.so [debug] [noaudit] DESCRIPTION
The pam_time PAM module does not authenticate the user, but instead it restricts access to a system and or specific applications at various times of the day and on specific days or over various terminal lines. This module can be configured to deny access to (individual) users based on their name, the time of day, the day of week, the service they are applying for and their terminal from which they are making their request. By default rules for time/port access are taken from config file /etc/security/time.conf. If Linux PAM is compiled with audit support the module will report when it denies access. OPTIONS
debug Some debug information is printed with syslog(3). noaudit Do not report logins at disallowed time to the audit subsystem. MODULE TYPES PROVIDED
Only the account type is provided. RETURN VALUES
PAM_SUCCESS Access was granted. PAM_ABORT Not all relevant data could be gotten. PAM_BUF_ERR Memory buffer error. PAM_PERM_DENIED Access was not granted. PAM_USER_UNKNOWN The user is not known to the system. FILES
/etc/security/time.conf Default configuration file EXAMPLES
#%PAM-1.0 # # apply pam_time accounting to login requests # login account required pam_time.so SEE ALSO
time.conf(5), pam.d(5), pam(8). AUTHOR
