Package: libpam-modules Version: 0.79-4 Severity: normal
When logging in I get a message "You have old mail in /var/mail/ferret." According to http://uw714doc.sco.com/en/SEC_pam/pam-6.html#ss6.14 , there is a parameter to pam_mail called 'quiet': quiet - only report when there is new mail. Setting this parameter in the appropriate files in /etc/pam.d has no effect, e.g. /etc/pam.d/ssh: session optional pam_mail.so noenv quiet I tried setting other parameters to pam_mail.so such as nopen to make sure I was setting the parameters in the correct place; and I was -- they had an effect. Looking in the source from apt-get source libpam-modules, this version looks like it should implement this parameter. I have no idea why it isn't. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages libpam-modules depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcap1 1:1.10-14 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libdb4.3 4.3.29-8 Berkeley v4.3 Database Libraries [ ii libpam0g 0.79-4 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 1.32-3 SELinux shared libraries libpam-modules recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
