I've edited the common-session file, and got the updates installed. It all works fine.....

BUT - it seems to me I should be able to revert to the original common-session file and not get the Authentification failed error. Doesn't work that way - putting the pam_deny.so line back into common-session brings up the Authentification failed error again.

I've tried following Steve's suggestion to remove the existing common-session and run pam-auth-update --force, but it fails saying it can't stat common-session - not surprising, as I removed it.

What next? Do we need the line "session requisite pam_deny.so" in common-session, or was redundant?
