Description Nalin Dahyabhai 2013-02-20 23:10:12 UTC
Description of problem:
The 'vlock' command doesn't work because it doesn't come with a PAM configuration.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kbd-1.15.5-3.fc19.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run 'vlock' or 'vlock -a'
  
Actual results:
First, I get the expected "The $TTY is now locked by nalin." message.  Then, instead of being prompted for my password, I get an 'Authentication failure.' error.  This is repeated immediately and indefinitely.

Expected results:
A password prompt.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 17:56:58 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)
