I tried it with a UID 1001:
root:> chmod o-r /etc/shadow
MyUserName:> su - jstest
works:
Jan 22 08:38:48 xpcubXYZ su[10286]: Successful su for jstest by MyUserName
Jan 22 08:38:48 xpcubXYZ su[10286]: + /dev/pts/0 MyUserName:jstest
Jan 22 08:38:48 xpcubXYZ su[10286]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for
user jstest by MyUserName(uid=502)
Jan 22 08:38:55 xpcubXYZ su[10286]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed for
user jstest
But jstest can't unlock the screensaver:
Jan 22 08:40:19 xpcubXYZ gnome-screensaver-dialog:
pam_unix(gnome-screensaver:auth): unix_chkpwd abnormal exit: 11
Jan 22 08:40:22 xpcubXYZ gnome-screensaver-dialog:
pam_unix(gnome-screensaver:auth): unix_chkpwd abnormal exit: 11
Jan 22 08:40:22 xpcubXYZ gnome-screensaver-dialog:
pam_unix(gnome-screensaver:auth): authentication failure;
logname= uid=1001 euid=1001 tty=:1.0 ruser= rhost= user=jstest
Sometimes I will reinstall the gnome parts. Which one neccessary?
