i reported similar problem in my lately post with subject: "msec ignores/overrides login.defs values, and other msec". i migrated from non-mandrake linux to mandrake, and after un-backup passwd and shadow files this system has problem with autentication. after my examining of problem, i found every-hour-running msec, which logging via loger info about disabled nearly all accounts (~2000).. i found, msec ignores unix traditional /etc/login.defs file (shadow-utils and others too...) where is exactly listed how long is password valid, and set another value which i must rewrite directly in msec script to properly time. i see, this file is in shadow-utils package only for decoration.. Frederic L. tell me this: <cite> To disbale password aging, use the following in /etc/security/msec/level.local: from mseclib import * password_aging(99999) </cite> ok, this is workarround, but pam modules between "old linux system" - 8.2 is incompatible? or what another? this is still non-reply question and possible big trouble after upgrade system to 8.2... p.s.: i still can't found detailed info about msec and his configuration files (level.local etc). msec is now very deeply integrated to system and users (admins) MUST have documentation about this. cooker@ isn't good documentatioon system;) bye -- +------------------------+---------------------------------------------+ + Tibor "FuturE" Pittich | Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] +------------------------+ HomePage : http://c0re.phuture.sk/future NIC-HDL: FUTU1-RIPE PGPkey : finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] +-------------------------> píšte mi v ISO-8859-2 <--------------------+
