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 crond[14765]: pam_loginuid(crond:session): set_loginuid failed opening loginuid crond[14811]: pam_loginuid(crond:session): set_loginuid failed opening loginuid crond[14842]: pam_loginuid(crond:session): set_loginuid failed opening loginuid

This seems to happen every 5 minutes. Probably caused by the cacti cron jobs running. It looks to have started after the last krb5 updates - however this could be coincidence.

$ cat crond # # The PAM configuration file for the cron daemon # # auth sufficient pam_rootok.so auth required pam_env.so auth include system-auth account required pam_access.so account include system-auth #session required pam_loginuid.so session include system-auth

I commended out pam_loginuid.so - as I remember reading somewhere that this was the cause of this issue, however it hasn't made a difference this time...

Does anyone have any insight in this?
