I see... so are there any commands that i can use to find out the line that contains the phrase "pam_rhosts_auth", but does not have the "#" infront of it.
erm, sorry... i have tried removing the "#" from those phrase which contain the pam_rhosts_auth, but i did not get any result after using the command. why is that so?
i think i typed in the command cat /etc/pam.conf | awk '(/^[^#].*pam_rhosts_auth/)' . But it doesn't seems to return me anything even if i remove the "#" from the phrase. Did i use the syntax wrongly or? Please guide me. Thank you so much.
