xlockmore and shadow?



Hi,
I have now upgraded my normal passwd-system to shadow. It
works perfectly - but xlock won't run anymore. It tells me
following:

--------
[wagner@bidnix ~]$ xlock
xlock: it looks like you have shadow passwording.
Contact your administrator.
--------

Well... I asked the package maintainer (it is the last
version of xlockmore I am using Version 4.02-1). And I
verified the group and s+bit of xlock:

--------
[wagner@bidnix ~]$ ls -l `which xlock`
-rwxr-sr-x   1 root     shadow     462824 Apr 25 01:53 /usr/bin/X11/xlock
--------

So, this seems to be fine.
But why doesn't accept it the shadow-passwds?

Ciao, Hanno
