for all non-root users on an unmodified ~x86 system. with everything up to date (3 Nov 2003). My /etc/pam.d/passwd looks like this: pvdabeel@research pam.d $ cat passwd #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
What do you do to produce this error ?
try to change password as a regular user
Err, its actually sorda a known issue. Please try pam-0.77 found here: http://dev.gentoo.org/~woodchip/pam/ Up until now i think it was only for mips or sparc - cant remember. (works fine here btw). You do not use nptl and pam_userdb right ?
that is correct. Will try this new pam now
I have the same error with pam 0.77 I think this is related to the /etc/pam.d/passwd file. Are these settings ok? pvdabeel@research pam.d $ cat passwd #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
Any ideas?
magically dissappeared.
I am getting this on 3 different gentoo machines now. It seems (apparently) to have something to do with cracklib.
