Hi,
PAM did indeed cross my mind as a suspect. Unfortunately, I have no
/var/log/auth* logfiles. As a matter of fact, I don't have any log
messages related to authentication. In my very old Redhat 7.3, I had
pam_unix messages in /var/log/messages
Hello,
Even though it would be fun (??!!) to dig into the authentication
mechanism, isn't the fact that failing to open /dev/tty takes 30 seconds
enough to blame the kernel alone? Or the same time to open /dev/pts/0?
Could there be any explanation for this except for a kernel bug?
And yes,

I always check Google first. Just to find out that it's adapting itself
to common people. For example, looking for pts, I get hits on the
word points.
