Yes, setresuid() does make a difference over NFS, but it's the wrong interface. You should be using setfsuid(), *not* setresuid().
If pam_env is already calling setfsuid() (which makes sense, as this is mature and well-exercised code, including on NFS), then I don't know of any other reason for the module to fail to read ~/.pam_environment on NFS. Someone who can reproduce this will need to trace the issue to see what's happening. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1083605 Title: env not changed in acc. with ~/.pam_environment if /home is on nfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1083605/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
