Bug#236750: known bug, fix is known too.



package kdm
tags 236750 +pending
thanks

This is a packaging bug in the kdm-np PAM service, which is a new
service in KDE 3.2, for passwordless logins only.  Refer to
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68331 for more info.  Calc has a
fix for it in his sources, but it's not going to get uploaded yet, in
order to not overload the buildd's.

The easy fix is to comment the line "@include common-auth" in
/etc/pam.d/kdm-np ( i.e. put a '#' sign at the front of the line ),
and to add a line "auth required pam_permit.so" after the two other
"auth required" lines.

I am attaching a known working /etc/pam.d/kdm-np file

cheers

auth       required     pam_nologin.so
auth       required     pam_env.so
auth       required     pam_permit.so
session    required     pam_limits.so
