Public bug reported: If pam_group appears twice in various pam.d files (eg added to common- auth and still present in login), it will add the user to those groups a second time.
Actually, the extent of the problem is worse than that — if the user is already a member of a group, they're still added a second time, indicating that no checking is done at all! This is definitely a pain when using NFSv3, as it has a limit of 16 supplementary groups. ** Affects: pam (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- pam_group is not idempotent https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/624715 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
