Description Michael Hill 2004-08-29 07:25:00 MDT

I just upgraded to 1.6.8 (built the RPM myself)--previous versions worked fine.
 When I run sudo as a normal user listed in the sudoers file, it segfaults after
I type in my password.  It does not log the attempt in the sudo.log file.  It
runs normally when run as root (doesn't prompt for a password).  When I add
NOPASSWD to my user line in sudoers, it runs normally.  So I believe the
(mis)behavior is related to the password checking.  I use the sample.pam file,
unchanged, in /etc/pam.d/sudo .
