Bug#463598: /var/run/utmp exists, but wdm still doesn't register the session
Package: wdm Version: 1.28-3.5 Followup-For: Bug #463598 Hello! Let me firstly thank you for your work on this package and for reading this:) So here's what the report is about: I've also noticed that wdm doesn't register the session it starts to utmp, but in my case /var/run/utmp exists on my system. It's strange, because the "sessreg" command is in its place in file /etc/X11/wdm/Xstartup: --- # Insert a utmp entry for the session if grep -q ^use-sessreg /etc/X11/wdm/wdm.options; then exec sessreg -a -l $DISPLAY -u /var/run/utmp -x /etc/X11/wdm/Xservers $USER # NOTREACHED fi --- and the option "use-sessreg" is enabled in /etc/X11/wdm/wdm.options. I tried to install xdm and it does register the session with almost identical "sessreg" command (the only difference is the -x parameter which is set to "/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers" there)... I reinstalled wdm with default configuration, but the problem remained there. Then i tried to install wdm from sid, but it still doesn't register the session. Wish you that the solution come easily, Thank you, Yury -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-tranquil1 Locale: LANG=uk_UA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=uk_UA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages wdm depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.7-18lenny2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfontconfig12.6.0-3generic font configuration library ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpam-modules1.0.1-5+lenny1 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime1.0.1-5+lenny1 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.0.1-5+lenny1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 2.0.65-5 SELinux shared libraries ii libsm62:1.0.3-2 X11 Session Management library ii libwraster3 0.92.0-8 Shared libraries of Window Maker r ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.3-3 X11 authorisation library ii libxdmcp6 1:1.0.2-3 X11 Display Manager Control Protoc ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxft2 2.1.12-3 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxinerama1 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxmu6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii psmisc22.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii x11-apps 7.3+4 X applications ii x11-common1:7.3+20 X Window System (X.Org) infrastruc ii x11-utils 7.3+2+nmu1 X11 utilities ii x11-xserver-utils 7.3+5 X server utilities wdm recommends no packages.

Bug#594176: wdm doesn't look at /etc/security/limits.d/ (found solution)
Package: wdm Version: 1.28-4 Severity: important Good day! I've noticed that sessions started by wdm aren't affected by the configuration files in /etc/security/limits.d/, so i quickly installed xdm and checked how the files /etc/pam.d/wdm and /etc/pam.d/xdm differ. After comparing them I've found that /etc/pam.d/xdm has an extra line: session requiredpam_limits.so After adding this line to my /etc/pam.d/wdm the problem was fixed. There is also a line @include common-password which is in /etc/pam.d/xdm, but not in /etc/pam.d/wdm, but i don't know if it makes any difference. Good luck and have a nice day! -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=uk_UA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=uk_UA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages wdm depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.35 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfontconfig12.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libice6 2:1.0.6-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpam-modules1.1.1-3Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime1.1.1-3Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.1.1-3Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 2.0.96-1 SELinux runtime shared libraries ii libsm62:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libwraster3 0.92.0-8.2 Shared libraries of Window Maker r ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-3 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.6-1 X11 authorisation library ii libxdmcp6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 Display Manager Control Protoc ii libxext6 2:1.1.2-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxft2 2.1.14-2 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxinerama1 2:1.1-3X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxmu6 2:1.0.5-1 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii psmisc22.11-1utilities that use the proc file s ii x11-apps 7.5+5 X applications ii x11-common1:7.5+6X Window System (X.Org) infrastruc ii x11-utils 7.5+4 X11 utilities ii x11-xserver-utils 7.5+2 X server utilities wdm recommends no packages.
