Description of problem: /etc/pam.d/system-auth is creating the pam_unix.so entry without the try_first_pass option. With the deprecation of pam_stack module this is needed so having prior optional auth modules don't require a password to be typed in twice. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: everytime if you have an optional auth module before the include Steps to Reproduce: 1.edit /etc/pam.d/gdm and edit it so it looks like this auth required pam_env.so auth optional pam_unix.so auth include system-auth 2.sudo killall gdm-binary 3.logging in as yourself will now require you to type the password twice Actual results: You have to type the password twice Expected results: You should only have to type in a single password Additional info:
Should be fixed in latest authconfig and pam packages.
