Hi,
1. I need a certain directory on my debian squeeze machine ( /var/lib/
gems/1.8/bin/ ) to be in the PATH when i run a sudo command. Hence, I
appended this dir to the ENV_PATH item in /etc/login.defs
2. Is there is a way to get /etc/login.defs "re-evaluated" without
rebooting.

In /etc/security/pam_env.conf, is ${PATH} supposed to "see" the value
of PATH set by /etc/login.defs?
If I set PATH in login.defs (using ENV_PATH=xxx) and set PATH=${PATH}:yyy
in pam_env.conf, the setting from login.defs doesn't show up (PATH gets
set to ":yyy").

Hi,
Just wanted to know, why I can't use
LOGIN_STRING "%s's password: "
in login.defs.
The default password string (Password: ) won't change.
I've tried it on several Linuxes (RH, Slack, SuSE) and
it worker perfectly.
Thanks in advantage...

Read the info file on

always shows up in ifconfig and there's no way to tell it from
ifconfig alone.
So I did a
'route | grep ippp0 | grep default | grep -q UG' which works most of
the time but fails sometimes. I don't know why.
Any ideas?

with pamification. Any pointers anyone can give will be appreciated.

That wouldn't work. I think what he's looking for is a way to put people
into the group when they're logged in at the cons
I mean in /etc/groups add a group "xdm". List all users that use xdm in it.
Then add this new group xdm to the floppy line.

? What do you mean by XDM group?

May be an easier way but how about making an XDM group? Put the
users in that. Then let group xdm be a member of floppy.

Hi,
Am I missing something obvious? I like it very much the way I can
put CONSOLE_GROUPS in login.defs because I want the person sitting on the
