-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Package: adduser Version: 3.59 Severity: critical
Some users have default /bin as home directory. deluser will remove /bin if such a user is removed and REMOVE_HOME is set to 1 in the config. After that the system has to be mostely new installed. This might be a critical bug in adduser or in the debian policy to create such cracy users. The bug might happens if you think of cleaning the system of from unnecesarry users to hardening it. Please at least check for such directorys like /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /usr or / to not completely remove!!! - -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (800, 'unstable'), (700, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.29 Locale: LANG=de_DE, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to de_DE) Versions of packages adduser depends on: ii debconf 1.4.42 Debian configuration management sy ii passwd 1:4.0.3-30.9 change and administer password and ii perl-base 5.8.4-6 The Pathologically Eclectic Rubbis - -- debconf information: * adduser/homedir-permission: true - -- Klaus Ethgen http://www.ethgen.de/ pub 2048R/D1A4EDE5 2000-02-26 Klaus Ethgen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fingerprint: D7 67 71 C4 99 A6 D4 FE EA 40 30 57 3C 88 26 2B -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) iQEVAwUBQgNfdJ+OKpjRpO3lAQKBMAf+K7Q17rRMa+qXjBK4x1RsM29bEEeIe31n VT4rp4Z0R+ratPCPpP4jHVBqaw2lTRlwQX+xCwq5sb68X0nQ6IZNC7ZYZ4s8m2O9 LpHzPUEP/SbWOZjnV8PLpkUaS9rn8Cjg9Yn0ZIt7aht/GMdkLZZH0w1kytNQ2MZa qGRoCDQYTp41WCaAjoLpTxlJmqSc3UewtZGiHvw2r4iJYId7Ip1/bkUhVw3NUBx1 QNQgMa51CEHDjKkz9c6oCR+aR5znra/MrGmq1ErDhuIuRJfsNoRAKUv/7jV9iMZR FQ6KfkJ7RWUrBkjPhThtNhU6dXqVCpZNfj0XzSvBj3cfx4ghu4Rt5w== =+s+f -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
