[expert] /bin/su Segmentation fault

2002-08-12 Thread Daniel Woods


Not sure what has happened, but I seemed to have a new
problem after upgrading to the newest kernel put out
by Mandrake to fix security holes.

Regular users can su into root and other accounts.
However, root causes these errors...
--- as root user
# su - newuser
Segmentation fault
# su -
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

# ls -l /bin/su
-rwsr-xr-x1 root root17912 Mar  7 07:54 /bin/su

the sudo file contains ...
rootALL = (ALL) ALL

and msec settings are
# cat /etc/security/msec/level.local
...
allow_root_login(1)
enable_libsafe(1)
enable_pam_wheel_for_su(0)
enable_password(1)
enable_sulogin(1)
...
#

Any ideas ?

Thanks... Dan.

ou, oh, not supposed to ever upgrade the kernel, allways install a new 
kernel.

I do know that, and I did do an install despite what the wording
used in my message.
