I believe I see a bug, that was documented for this library in general, in SLES8. I wonder if this bug has been addressed in current releases of pam and if this fixes are available for SLES8? I know the bug was either not introduced into Redhat 7.2 for Z or that it was fixed. I see it only on my SLES8 install...
And the Bug is: When logging in via ssh I get connection closed. This is due to a missing home directory or the inability to create one. I have the following entry in /etc/pam.d/sshd, as I do in Redhat 7.2. session required pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel umaks=0022 When the line is not commented out I receive the connection closed, when it is removed or commented I am able to log in. (Of course I get dropped into / until I manually create the home directory.) Are others having this problem? and again is it addressed in a patch or by some other means? Thanks!
