I would like to CONFIRM this bug :-), My last tests was not very precisely. :) There is a little test: There is a test user: lt:~$ id test uid=503(test) gid=509(test) groups=509(test) pam-0.74-22 Only root is login on console tty1 Now, I try login as user test on tty2: login: test Password: Last login: Sun Sep 9 18:29:38 on tty2 lt:~# id uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=509(test) Taadam. Test user has uid=0 and gid=0 :-) If we remove line: @test - maxlogins 2 from /etc/security/limits.conf or line: session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so from /etc/pam.d/login it's works correctly, we can login as test on tty2 without root privilege. :-) login: test Password: Last login: Sun Sep 9 18:29:28 on tty1 lt:~$ id uid=503(test) gid=509(test) groups=509(test) bash-2.05$ rpm -q pam pam-0.74-22 bash-2.05$ uname -r 2.4.9 -- *[ Łukasz Trąbiński ]* SysAdmin @wsisiz.edu.pl
