Is t possible that you're running systemd or have libpam-systemd installed? piotr and i found a bug with systemd's pam module that triggers a failure on session termination, which would cause an error in monkeysphere-authentication (which uses su to drop privileges and bails out if there is an error): http://bugs.debian.org/599731 If you don't have libpam-systemd installed on the system in question, can you show me the output of the following command (as root): bash -x /usr/share/monkeysphere/transitions/0.23 This command should be idempotent (safe to run multiple times), and it should exit with a return code of 0. Thanks, --dkg
