Description Chris Ricker 2003-01-07 05:37:10 UTC
usermode doesn't set ruser, preventing configs like:

[kaboom@verdande txts]$ cat /etc/security/console.apps/redhat-config-users 
USER=root
PROGRAM=/usr/share/redhat-config-users/redhat-config-users
SESSION=true
[kaboom@verdande txts]$ 

[kaboom@verdande txts]$ cat /etc/pam.d/redhat-config-users 
#%PAM-1.0
auth       sufficient   /lib/security/pam_rootok.so
auth       sufficient   /lib/security/pam_timestamp.so
auth            sufficient        /lib/security/pam_listfile.so item=ruser 
sense=allow file=/etc/security/listfiles/r-c-users onerr=fail
auth       required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session    required     /lib/security/pam_permit.so
session    optional     /lib/security/pam_xauth.so
session    optional     /lib/security/pam_timestamp.so
account    required     /lib/security/pam_permit.so
[kaboom@verdande txts]$ 

[kaboom@verdande txts]$ cat /etc/security/listfiles/r-c-users 
kaboom
[kaboom@verdande txts]$ 

from giving the desired result (letting users listed in r-c-users run program
w/o password, but requiring all unlisted users to enter the root password)
