Package: libpam-ccreds Version: 1-6 Severity: important Hey, it seems I can't use xscreensaver together with libpam-ccreds. When I type in my password xscreensaver will not unlock the screen and this is printed in auth.log:
Mar 24 15:09:23 laptop5 xscreensaver: (pam_unix) authentication failure; logname= uid=516 euid=516 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost= user=root Mar 24 15:09:26 laptop5 xscreensaver[1086]: FAILED LOGIN 1 ON DISPLAY ":0.0", FOR "weinholt" Mar 24 15:09:30 laptop5 xscreensaver[1086]: pam_ccreds: failed to open cached credentials "/var/cache/.security.db": Permission denied I found a reference to this problem here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=151914 I tried the patch provided in that bug report, but for some reason it didn't make the problem go away. Maybe it's not the same problem? This is what my configuration looks like: Relevant lines from nsswitch.conf: passwd: files ldap [NOTFOUND=return] db group: files ldap [NOTFOUND=return] db shadow: files ldap This is my common-auth file: auth [user_unknown=ignore authinfo_unavail=ignore success=1 default=2] pam_unix.so auth [default=done] pam_ccreds.so action=validate use_first_pass auth [default=done] pam_ccreds.so action=store auth required pam_ccreds.so action=update auth required pam_deny.so common-account: account [user_unknown=ignore authinfo_unavail=ignore default=done] pam_unix.so account [default=done] pam_permit.so /etc/pam.d/xscreensaver simply includes common-auth. I'm using nss-updatedb, libnss-db, libnss-ldap, libpam-ldap, and libpam-ccreds with the hope that everything will still work when the LDAP server is unreachable. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages libpam-ccreds depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdb4.3 4.3.29-5 Berkeley v4.3 Database Libraries [ ii libgcrypt11 1.2.2-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libgpg-error0 1.2-1 library for common error values an ii libpam0g 0.79-3.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l libpam-ccreds recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Göran Weinholt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer, sysadmin, netadmin
