Reply-To: ptxdist@pengutronix.de List-Id: PTXdist Development Mailing List List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: ptxdist-bounces@pengutronix.de Errors-To: ptxdist-bounces@pengutronix.de To: ptxdist@pengutronix.de Hello, as I'm trying to adopt PTX to an i.MX53 based board, I wondered why sudo didn't accept any user passwords. sudo.make calls configure with --disable- shadow. Removing this line enables sudo to retrieve passwords from /etc/shadow and everything is fine. Is there a reason, why shadow support was disabled? I am using PTXdist 2013.09.0. Thank you for your help! Felix -- ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de
