Bryce, is this fixed with the 'new' version in the tree now?

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2002-04-02 17:46:08 UTC
Apparently it is not fixed with 3.9.10-1.

Comment 3 Phil Copeland 2002-04-15 19:15:52 UTC
pam support added into 3.9.11-2 
BIG NOTE: pam support needs a /etc/pam.d/screen file without which it will
default to /etc/pam.d/other which typically deny's everything so you'd lock a
screen and never be able to unlock it 8)
but I've included one in the rpm dist that gets installed.

What is this jumping from 3.9.10 to 3.9.11 then back to 3.9.10 and now again to 
3.9.11 ?

Will 3.9.11 be released in the next RHL ?

Comment 5 Phil Copeland 2002-04-16 08:29:16 UTC
the 3.9.11 that originally appeared was not sanctioned by me. it was a poorly
cobbled together rpm by one of the german team who overstepped his mark and
broke numerous features.

This one is as should be.
