[...] You might want to try using su - instead of su, in order to actually *become* the other person. I am. You might try ssh user@machinename instead of ssh machinename. You might also try logging in as someone other than root (;^)). Finally, you might want to remove ~root/.ssh, and let it be recreated... it could just be a version thing. Realize that, no matter what, if you are being identified as root, then you will not be able to get access to ~root/.ssh's contents if you give up your root-ness. So that means you need to figure out how it's deciding you are root. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
pam_unix.so error and lock order reversal
Hello, I have three issues. 1) When logging in, the following appears in messages: Apr 13 12:18:37 laptop login: in openpam_dispatch(): pam_unix.so: no pam_sm_open_session() Apr 13 12:18:38 laptop login: in openpam_dispatch(): pam_unix.so: no pam_sm_close_session() 2) When logged in as root, and su'd to a non-root user, I cannot ssh to a 4.5-STABLE machine.. It just hangs. But when logged in as non-root, it works fine. Is this somekind of security feature? :-) 3) lock order reversal when for instance doing a cvsup Apr 13 12:16:58 laptop kernel: lock order reversal Apr 13 12:16:58 laptop kernel: 1st 0xcc5928e4 KNOTE (UMA zone) @ /usr/src/sys/vm/uma_core.c:491 Apr 13 12:16:58 laptop kernel: 2nd 0xc082a724 PCPU KMAP ENTRY (UMA cpu) @ /usr/src/sys/vm/uma_core.c:1264 I'm running 5.0-CURRENT two hours old.

Is this somekind of security feature? :-) Pretty much. The user it attempts to log you in as is still root, because that's still your identity, even if it's not your current credential. But your current credential does not have access to the files for the remote system which are necessary for your identity (~root/.ssh). Ideally, identity would be handled by a session manager, which was created at login time, which would maintain its priviledges to these resources.
