Hmm, as long as it is not a bug for a login application using pam to drop root priviledges (but merely a wish to make pammount work with it), shouldn't pammount be avoided for them altogether in order to avoid the resulting possibility of wrong login counting ? But anyway, i am not really that much interested in this, i never use those programs you mentioned. i only noticed because you asked to try su regarding the other bug and i thought i could as well file a bug. Its ok with me to close this one and be done with it :) Ah, and i suppose i never mentioned during my series of bug reports that i very much appreciate the pam mount package and your maintanance of it.
