** Description changed:
I am working on a kubuntu hardy (8.04) beta installed from scratch.
Everything work well but when I switch user (su) I see this
error in /var/log/auth.log file:
: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_smbpass.so)
: PAM [error: /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory]
: PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so
The user switch is successfully done .
The file pam_smbpass.so is not present on my systema and i have solved the
problem installing the package: libpam-smbpass.
Maybe a missed package ?
Best Regards
TEST CASE:
monitor /var/log/auth.log. With hardy version of libpam-runtime and libpam0g
installed, and libpam-smbpass not installed, run 'sudo -k' followed by 'sudo
ls'. Observe that three log messages are written about libpam-smbpass.
Upgrade to hardy-proposed versions of libpam-runtime and libpam0g. Run 'sudo
-k', then 'sudo ls' again. Observe that there are no log messages about
libpam-smbpass.

+ Regression potential: minimal. No modules are known to use a
+ 'missingok' option today, so there is minimal practical risk of
+ overlapping semantics. In particular, the smbpass module ignores this
+ as an unknown option, so this will not negatively impact users who do
+ have pam_smbpass installed. The maximum potential impact is that users
+ who use 'missingok' in their PAM configs for other modules, for whatever
+ reason, will find it more difficult to debug failures caused by the
+ named module being missing from the system.
