Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I did a large update a week or two ago (400 packages); system is ~x86. |
| 4 |
It took awhile and needed some cleaning, but in general everything |
| 5 |
went smoothly. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
However, I noticed that logins, su, and sudo are all responding |
| 8 |
slowly. This was all fixed and fine once I updated my configuration |
| 9 |
files, but this week it's acting up again. Before it was just su and |
| 10 |
sudo that I noticed as slow (authentication takes around 20 seconds). |
| 11 |
But now even logins are delayed (xdm or command line). |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
As an example that I timed: su, it takes 20 seconds for the password |
| 14 |
prompt to appear, and over 60 seconds for the login to authenticate |
| 15 |
(assuming the correct password...it is a little faster to fail). |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
What package(s) are most likely to be responsible for logins and |
| 18 |
su/sudo? I tried rebuilding (and also downgrading) pam, and I'm |
| 19 |
trying some other things now, but no luck so far. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
I'm happy to provide any information, but this kind of problem is |
| 22 |
nothing I have experience with, so I have no sense of what else to |
| 23 |
mention. |

Cheers, |
