Hi again,

Point 3 is likely for upstream?
The issue here is that you cant stop/start the vmblock filesystem as
long as anyone is using it. Supposedly you would send a signal to the user daemons, telling them to give up any references to it - but its
not  handled and instead the user daemon terminates.

what I forgot here: upstream ships a pam config, which doesn't find its
way into the package into the package yet. I have to investigate what
else is missing. I think I'll do everything form scratch, but I just
didn't have the time to do so since I took over the maintenance.

for /etc/pam.d/vmtoolsd:

#%PAM-1.0
auth       sufficient       pam_unix2.so nullok
auth       sufficient       pam_unix.so shadow nullok
auth       required         pam_unix_auth.so shadow nullok
account    sufficient       pam_unix2.so
account    sufficient       pam_unix.so
account    required         pam_unix_acct.so


Could you give that a try (I guess it needs some modifications),
but it might fix some issues - not sure though.

Thanks,

Bernd
