Package: libpam-modules Version: 1.0.1-5+lenny1 Severity: important Hello: After reading through the original bug report and the one submitted to Ubuntu (#327597), I think there is some issue, at least with trying to change the memlock limits.
So, before touching anything: nas...@rey2:~$ ulimit -l 32 nas...@rey2:~$ ulimit -H -l 32 Note that this machine is an LDAP client for authentication via libpam-ldap. After adding these lines to an otherwise empty /etc/security/limits.conf: * hard memlock unlimited * soft memlock unlimited and double checking that in the file /etc/pam.d/sshd is uncommented: # Set up user limits from /etc/security/limits.conf. session required pam_limits.so I see no change either through a VNC terminal or just ssh'ing to the machine: VNC TERMINAL nas...@rey2:~$ su nasser Password: nas...@rey2:~$ ulimit -l 32 nas...@rey2:~$ ulimit -H -l 32 SSH DIRECTLY TO MACHINE nas...@rey2:~$ ulimit -l 32 nas...@rey2:~$ ulimit -H -l 32 This is my first bug report and I am not an expert at this, but I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong, I do think there is a bug. I have also tried different limits in /etc/security/limits.conf: * hard memlock 100 * soft memlock 50 which do not work. I tried this on my home machine, which does not use LDAP in any way, but is also an Intel machine, and it worked correctly. If I have left something out that is needed, please let me know.
