That's what I've got. >Or maybe this is a permission problem... /etc/shadow should be readable by >group shadow, and xlockmore should be setgid shadow. Yep... that did it. Perhaps I didn't set up shadow stuff correctly? I kind of stumbled upon it: I noticed references to it, and I typed pwconv (which I recognized from my solaris systems) and things seemed to work pretty happily (except xlock), so I figured that this was it. Is there a "convert me to shadow" jobber I might not have noticed? thanks (and sorry for the newbieness--I've just been running debian for like a week now). --sf -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
