Hello!
I have noticed (a long time ago, BTW) that login and
"su -" exhibit diffrent behavior when using pam_env.so
("auth required pam_env.so" line in /etc/pam.d/login
and /etc/pam.d/su).
AFAIK, pam_env.so is used in Debian by default to set
LANG env for login sessions. Also pam_env.so is enabled
by default (?) in /etc/pam.d/login and there's no such
line in /etc/pam.d/su. Anyway, I enabled it in
/etc/pam.d/su to get similar behavior but without
success. I straced su, examined what env is passed to
shell and read su.c/login.c source code ('bout this
later).
First of all, why do I think it's better for 'su -' to
use pam_env? Because, from man su:
> OPTIONS
> - make this a login shell
and I think this means that su in "-" should mimic
'login' as close as possible.
Main problem that I had due to the inconsistent
behaviour, is loss of locale (LANG) after 'su -'
switch. I have "LANG=en_GB.UTF-8" in /etc/environment
(this is default Debian's way, isn't it?) and despite
using pam_env, this was lost after 'su -', contrary to
usual root login, when locale is correctly set. I was
forced to add
> [ "x$LANG" = "x" ] && export LANG="en_GB.UTF-8"
line in /etc/profile as workaround. I think it's a way
too ugly.
So, what have I found in login.c so different from
su.c?
It's a call to pam_getenvlist() and explicit addenv()
for all extracted from there variables.
Bear in mind, please, that I'm new to pam programming,
but I spent half a week studying source and tested su
with my patch applied.
I have one more question -- do you have smth. like
pam_xauth in RedHat, that deals with Xauthority accross
su, for example?
