Description Robert Golding 2006-05-01 20:03:14 UTC

When logging in on console or xterm, above message relayed on password.  The url has problem listed from 4th post

I have already searched forums and gugzilla and foun d no fix that works here.  All rc-updates have been done and I don't touch anything for PAm anyway as I don't need to.
