The problem was that the newest base-password deletes the group "wheel"
under some circumstances. In my case, "wheel" had the same gid as "sys"
wanted.
This is a problem if you have PAM configured such that only members of group
wheel can become root.
On the bright side, I found a securit
Using sid, kernel 2.4.17, MD5 Passwords, whenever I try to su to root, I get
a "permission denied" error. Not a PAM_UNIX AUTHFAIL error, but permission
denied.
I know that the password I give it is correct.
Does anyone else get this, and/or know how to fix it?
thanks,
