I can verify that editing /etc/pam.d/cron and commenting out @include
common-session supresses lines like this from /var/log/auth.log:
Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26443]: pam_unix(cron:session): session closed
for user production
Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26453]: pam_unix(cron:session): session opened
for user production by (uid=0)
Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26459]: pam_unix(cron:session): session opened
for user production by (uid=0)
Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26453]: pam_unix(cron:session): session closed
for user production
Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26463]: pam_unix(cron:session): session opened
for user production by (uid=0)
Jan 17 06:30:01 u2 CRON[26469]: pam_unix(cron:session): session opened
for user production by (uid=0)
Keywords: auth.log filling up, laptop won't spin down, log spam,
excessive logging, Ubuntu, Debian, pam, pluggable authentication
modules, pam_unix, cron.
