how to use the patch file? and my pam version is pam-0.75-51

Logged In: NO

There are *lots* of patches and fixes in CVS and 0.75 has
been out for months, isn't it time for a new release? I have
55 patches in my spec file so far and looking at another one
right now because of this pam_limits bug here.

So, it turns out that you are right, but there is a
legitimate reason for the behavior of the module as it was
implemented.

I've fixed the default behavior to match the one you
indicate, and also added a new module argument "utmp_early"
to make the module work as it used to.

I'd be happy if you could look over the following CVS
changes and try
the resulting module out and file any problems as a follow
up bug report.

Thanks for taking the time to point out the crux of this
problem.

Cheers

Andrew
