[attention] PAM unix auth. module broken
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Package: libpam-modules
Version: 0.72-26
Severity: grave
Hi people,
<humor>
I'm now trapped in the great hole of security since someone's been
trying to secure me from myself. The current version of PAM,
the authentication that works too well, this time prevents me from
logging in at all. Lucky that I'm logged in for now. Pheew.
</humor>
Beware this version since it seems to provide ultimate security,
not only disallowing logging in from the network but logging in from the
console. :)
