Username checking now once again follows the upstream rules, for
|
|
an ecosystem-wide ruleset and security.

/var/log/faillog and the programs to read it are no longer part since
|
|
1:4.15.2-2.
|
|
The file isn't cleaned up automatically, which should be done manually,
|
|
unless it is still needed for special reasons.

The previous entry falsely states that PREVENT_NO_AUTH in /etc/login.defs
|
|
affects authentication. The historical default of letting all users with
|
|
empty password field in without authentication is still in effect.

|
|
|
|
Login now prevents an empty password field to be interpreted as
|
|
"no authentication required" for UID 0 (root account).
|
|
The historical default of letting all users with empty password field
|
|
in without authentication can be restored in /etc/login.defs setting
|
|
PREVENT_NO_AUTH to "no".

* commands passed in argument to su must use su's -c option and must quote

the command if it contains a space, as in:

su - root -c "ls -l /"

The following commands won't work anymore:

su - root "ls -l /"

* passwd does not support the -f, -s, and -g options anymore. You should use
|
|
the chfn, chsh and gpasswd utilities instead.
|
|
* login now distributes the nologin utility, which can be used as a shell
|
|
to politely refuse a login

CLOSE_SESSIONS and other variables are not used anymore in
|
|
/etc/login/defs.
|
|
As shadow utilities which use this file now warn about unknown
|
|
entries there, administrators should remove such unknown entries.
|
|
The supplied login.defs file does not include them anymore.
|
|
|
|
dpasswd is no more distributed by upstream. Login do not support
|
|
dialup password anymore. Re-introducing this functionality in
|
|
upstream is not trivial.
