Do xdmcp and the standard greeter declare separate PAM service names? Otherwise it's still not practical to do this by default without introducing a security hole, because unless the two can be distinguished by "tty" (i.e., X display) values, the PAM behavior is going to be either insecure, or block out this use case. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
