Re: PAM not playing nicely with vsftpd and pam_exec.so

Okay. I need a bit more explanation. Glad to hear there might be hope but
don't completely understand "always that directive to common session" .  I
think you mean place the statement:

session    optional     pam_exec.so

Inside the common session file?

If so what is the theory behind why that could work -- trying to teach
myself the reasons why that could be a solution.

Thank you.
