>Release:        FreeBSD 4.9-RC i386
>Organization:
Lipetsk State Technical University
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD skynick.stu.lipetsk.ru 4.9-RC FreeBSD 4.9-RC #0: Sun Nov 23 19:53:55 MSK 2003 root@skynick.stu.lipetsk.ru:/usr/src/sys/compile/CORSAIR i386
>Description:
The global "pam_handle_t *pamh" variable is redeclared in the auth_pam()
function, so the global "*pamh" will always be NULL and so the
pam_open_session() call will always be unreachable.
>How-To-Repeat:
Put the pam_deny.so module into the "session" group as a required module and
see the logs...
>Fix:
