The pam backup appears to come from Ubuntu 8.10, not from 8.04; and it is pristine. This was important to verify because in Ubuntu 8.10 and above, additional PAM module packages will auto-enable themselves when installed.
So I don't really see any way that this could be a PAM bug. Indeed, a PAM bug would definitely not explain hangs when trying to shut down daemons on reboot. I'm removing the package assignment on this report. If you manage to reproduce the bug again with jaunty, please check the output of the 'dmesg' command; I suspect a kernel problem more than anything. ** Package changed: pam (Ubuntu) => ubuntu -- unknown hang breaks all authentication, happens intermittently https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290099 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
