Than you for the thanks. I think we should figure this thing out properly before creating a lot of tasks. Simple grep pam_env /etc/pam.d/* reveals some packages, but not all. Is there a database which packages provide which files?
I think that instead of what I proposed first, it would be better to have these two lines: auth required pam_env.so user_readenv=0 auth required pam_env.so conffile=/dev/null envfile=/etc/default/locale Then the order of reading files would be /etc/security/pam_env.conf /etc/environment /etc/default/locale ~/.pam_environment What I first proposed would read the /etc/default/locale after ~/.pam_environment not allowing user to override the locale. I tried to submit for linux-PAM an update on pam_env documentation. Lets see how active they are. Better documentation should help here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1302349 Title: pam_env applies user_envfile twice To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1302349/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
