Description Mike H. 2003-06-25 14:36:44 EDT 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; Q312461; .NET 
CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Description of problem:
Whenever I try to login a non-root user, I can't connect through ssh. When I 
login as root and try to su to the user, I get a message that says "could not 
open session"
In /var/log/messages I get "localnet PAM-env[31412]: Unable to open config 
file: Permission denied"
In /var/log/secure I get "localnet sshd[31412]: fatal: login_get_lastlog: 
Cannot find account for uid 500"
I have checked /etc/passwd and /etc/groups and I find no problems with those 
files and the account is valid. I was able to login a few days ago, but when I 
tried today, I encountered this problem.
Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pam-0.75-46.8.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. login as a non-root user
2. 
3.
    

Actual Results:  If I try to login via ssh, I can't connect at all. I also 
cannot su either.

Expected Results:  Login occured normally.

I've also realized that if I try to login through ssh as root more than once, 
I get denied a logon as well.

Check if your /etc/passwd has correct rights.

# ll /etc/passwd
-rw-------    1 root     root         1736 jan 22 08:14 /etc/passwd

is an entry that gave me today the same results than you.

# ll /etc/passwd
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1791 jan 22 07:46 /etc/passwd

is a correct entry without problems.
