[Bug 220687] New: passwordless accounts don't work anymore
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=220687 Summary: passwordless accounts don't work anymore Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: ak@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de For autoboot i'm using a passwordless user. # grep autoboot /etc/shadow /etc/passwd /etc/shadow:autoboot::13392:0:99999:7::: /etc/passwd:autoboot:x:32002:100::/autoboot:/bin/bash On SLES10 this works fine. I can su from anybody to the user and run programs But on 10.2 that doesn't work anymore. I got exactly the same setup # grep autoboot /etc/shadow /etc/passwd /etc/shadow:autoboot::13454:0:99999:7::: /etc/passwd:autoboot:x:32002:100::/autoboot:/bin/bash su'ing from root works, but not from another user. It always asks me about a (not existing) password
su autoboot Password:
and then gives this cryptic error message in /var/log/messages pam_unix2(su:auth): user=0, password=1, at_same_time=1 Yes I know sudo would be better, but this should work. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
