Hi Petter, nope, doesn't make any difference, I still get the "Unexpected exception, should never happen ..." message. I have stopped nscd, no difference. And nslcd isn't installed (do I need it other than for caching?). Puzzled...

Not quite sure which child process is the problem. Hm, is nscd installed? Perhaps the problem is the call "/usr/sbin/nscd -i passwd" in /usr/lib/libpam-mklocaluser/pam-python.py? Try to comment it out and see if the situation improves. Happy hacking, --
