Hi I don't think this is a ppc specific problem and so I'm posting here.
In response to the sudo security alert I've upgraded 1 sid workstation and 3 woody servers (2 i386 and 1 ppc). All are fine except for the woody ppc upgrade. During "aptitude upgrade" dpkg couldn't write to its file because /var was at 100% "no room left". The package installed but something was awry. When running sudo I get the following before commands are executed: Looking at PWD=/var/mail... Looking at [EMAIL PROTECTED]:\w\$ ... Looking at USER=clive... Looking at MAIL=/var/mail/clive... Looking at LANG=C... Looking at SSH_CLIENT=192.168.1.11 37884 22... Looking at LOGNAME=clive... Looking at SHLVL=1... Looking at SHELL=/bin/bash... Looking at HOME=/home/clive... Looking at TERM=xterm... Looking at PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games... Looking at SSH_TTY=/dev/pts/0... Looking at _=/usr/bin/sudo... Looking at OLDPWD=/home/clive... Other than this sudo works fine AFAICT. I tried removing sudo and purging the configuration files (dpkg -P sudo) and then reinstalling (having cleaned /var to make room) but the problem remains. I tried to find a configuration file for sudo but only came up with: /etc/init.d/sudo /etc/pam.d/sudo neither of which seem a likely source of remedy. Nothing is showing up in BUGS and I'm puzzled as to where to go from here ;) Thanks Clive -- www.clivemenzies.co.uk ... ...strategies for business -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
