Package: login Version: 1:4.0.18.1-7 Severity: important Filing this bug against login is a pure guess, I just don't know any better - sorry.
I'm having trouble logging into this system which uses NIS and NFS shares. When I attempt to authenticate with incorrect credentials behavior is as expected (short delay, error message, new login prompt) but when I authenticate with correct credentials login (or a process following after it) just stalls, and I can never get a prompt. At this point all I can do is reboot (Ctrl-C doesn't have any effect). This is alwas reproducible when I login in multi user mode, however, when I start the system in single user mode I can login just fine as root. I recently did a BIOS upgrade on this Dell Optiplex 755 but I believe I could login fine at least once after this. I did not install new packages either, but have removed libnss-mdns recently. Thanks in advance for any help you could provide. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (600, 'stable'), (500, 'proposed-updates') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages login depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpam-modules 0.79-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 0.79-5 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.79-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules l login recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
