Pam Problem
This may be the wrong place to post this, but it seems to be a problem
with APT (or at least the way I am using it) as well as a problem with
PAM. If there is a better list, please let me know (I have never
posted to these lists before).
I did a standard apt-get update / apt-get upgrade the other night (Sept
29th) and Pam was upgraded. After that, a bunch of stuff stopped
working (I guess some configuration files changed in PAM). No longer
could I ssh to my machine, my console login has issues and cron won't
run. I was able to fix ssh by completely removing it (--purge) and then
reinstalling it. However, this doesn't really work for login or cron
(and there may be other things broken too). I tried to uninstall cron,
but I guess it is kinda important :)
I tried to do a --re-install, but this didn't update any configuration
files. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Ian
