password issue with qingy
 
Hi all,

I've installed qingy (Slacware10 kernel-2.4.26)... everything went fine except that when I run qingy: it always reject me for a wrong password :confused:
I've also tried to create a new user account (foo) with no password... But still the same result :cry:
So I wonder if someone has had a similar problem and how can I solve it...
Note that I can login with no problem with kdm, agetty...

Thanks
Oliv'

Problem solved :cool:
So the issue was due to shadow library... In fact libshadow was missing (so need to reinstall it)... But it still wouldn't work :confused:
So I have to enter in the source code :scratch: after adding few debug lines I realized that libshadow wasn't used: the code between #ifdef SHADOW_PASSWD and #endif was never executed. So I modified my config.h by adding the following line:
Code:

#define SHADOW_PASSWD 1
I recompile... and it works :D
