** Summary changed: - kblankscrn.kss refuses to unlock accounts with blank password + kdesktop_lock refuses to unlock accounts with blank password
** Description changed: - Binary package hint: kdebase-bin + Binary package hint: kdesktop A user account can have a blank password. To set it to blank # passwd -d username GDM uses PAM for authentication, and PAM will allow users with blank passwords to authenticate in certain situations if nullok_secure in /etc/pam.d/common-auth is changed to nullok. After doing this it is posible to login to kde with a blank password. If the sesison is locked, it will refuse to unlock. - /usr/bin/kblankscrn.kss is in kdebase-bin. Using 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu27 - (dapper-security) + /usr/bin/kdesktop_lock is in kdesktop. Using 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu27 (dapper- + security) -- kdesktop_lock refuses to unlock accounts with blank password https://launchpad.net/bugs/89906 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
