Rhm, I thought I fixed this issue in this sys. Take a look at /etc/pam.d |
| 30 |
there must be three files useradd groupadd and shadow, both with the |
| 31 |
same content. |
| 32 |
Arg I took a quick look and found a typing bug. rename userpadd to |
| 33 |
useradd. :/ |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Sorry for the inconvenience this sys is a snapshot release. |

This syslog thing sounds realy strange, I will take a look at it later |
| 38 |
(4:30am here). |
| 39 |
Maybe remerging gluelog/daemontools (both in sys-apps) solves this |
| 40 |
problem. |
| 41 |
If you don't speak polis you should also remerge the man package in |
| 42 |
sys-apps. |
