Hi all,
I've had this error rear it's ugly head again and I'm not exactly sure why. The output in /var/log/message is:
crond[14764]: pam_loginuid(crond:session): set_loginuid failed opening loginuid
I've seen this when using a non-standard kernel without the correct CONFIG_AUDIT and CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL options set.
If you're running a kernel without those options then you can remove the pam_loginuid from PAM (sshd,crond,login,remote and possibly others)
Bingo. That was the cause (and fix) of the problem. Turned those options on in the kernel, and now all is good.
