Description Tim Jackson 2022-06-03 21:59:28 UTC

This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #1847501

I am copying this bug because: the bug now exists in CentOS Stream 8


Description of problem:

pam_motd spews errors:

sshd[xxx]: pam_motd(sshd:session): pam_motd: error scanning directory /etc/motd.d
sshd[xxx]: pam_motd(sshd:session): pam_motd: error scanning directory /run/motd.d
sshd[xxx]: pam_motd(sshd:session): pam_motd: error scanning directory /usr/lib/motd.d

Was not present in pam-1.3.1-16.el8

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pam-1.3.1-18.el8.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ssh into machine

Expected results:
No error messages in logs

Comment 1 thalunil 2022-06-15 12:49:28 UTC

seems fixed with the current version pam-1.3.1-20.el8.x86_64.rpm

Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2022-06-21 12:41:39 UTC

I still see:

sshd[xxx]: pam_motd(sshd:session): pam_motd: error scanning directory /run/motd.d

with pam-1.3.1-20.el8.x86_64.

I think maybe /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/pam.conf needs to declare that one?

Comment 3 Iker Pedrosa 2022-06-21 12:50:23 UTC

The issue hasn't been fixed so I assume that thalunil isn't getting any error because the folder exists in their system.

Comment 4 thalunil 2022-06-21 13:21:14 UTC

That's true, problem still there
