Two problems have been a minor source of irritation to me while I've used 2.2.2 and 2.2.5. First, I haven't been able to get the class capabilities database to work. I was alerted to this problem when I first logged on to the console: Feb 6 13:15:56 bogushost login: couldn't resolve 'tc=' reference in 'login_getclass' Since then, I've tried restoring the login.conf file to the "out of box" version, I've looked for incorrect syntax, and I've tried "tweaking" it in order to rid the file of "tc=" references. Going by the man page documentation, I couldn't find any problems with login.conf, so I tried rebuilding "login" and then as much of /usr/libexec as I knew how. No success, although I could have overlooked something. Does anyone know precisely what the binaries are that I need to rebuild in order to make my system read login.conf without any complaints, or is/was there a patch available? I'm also wondering whether anyone out there using xdm has gotten "sessreg" to work right, that is, does your X session show up in "who"? I'm not very literate in C, but I think the source code for "sessreg" says that *BSD OS's can't use DISPLAY values like ":0" in "utmp". Perhaps this is a question that should be directed at the XFree86 folks, but there have been a few other usenet gripes about it. Thanks in advance for the input...
