I have continued to work on this issue in Gnome's bugzilla. From current tests it appears the situation has changed slightly.
Gnome recommended a RedHat patch which adds a suid root binary to the libpam-ccreds package. This solves the libpam-ccreds case. I have applied this to a new version of libpam-ccreds. When this gets upload it will close this issue. My situation isn't yet rosy. Despite fixing ccreds, my problem has continued. It has changed to a problem in pam_unix directly. I will close this bug post-edgy when this new ccreds version is uploaded. I am creating a new bug to track the pam_unix issue. ** Attachment added: "patch to be applied to version 4 of libpam-ccreds" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4916010/03_chkpwd.dpatch -- Unable to unlock when using pam_ccreds https://launchpad.net/bugs/43465 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
