Hi folks,
I've completed a pretty clean crossgrade [1] to -CURRENT and find that
su is broken. I thought this had been fixed.
I have a virgin rev 1.17 /etc/pam.conf, I'm in group wheel, I built
world with no funky options, the su binary (built from su rev 1.39)
really is setuid root and yet I get the amazingly helpful error message:
su: Sorry
without being prompted for a password. /var/log/messages contains the
infinitely more helpful error message
su: pam_authenticate: Permission denied
So what's up?
Ciao,
Sheldon.
[1] I can't bring myself to call the process of converting from
4.3-STABLE to 5.0-CURRENT an "upgrade".
