Comment 17 for bug 216990

Steve,
   I realize the manifestation of this bug is not mounting NAS shares. The PAM errors in the system logs I have are identical to those in this bug and the dup of this bug. Therefor I believe it is the same bug albeit a different action that caused the PAM Auth error. I did not send snippets of the system log as it would have been totally redundant with the exception of the 'action' being mount not su.

  It is the identical PAM error. It worked fine on Friday with the beta version of 8.04 prior to my clean install of the GA version. I merely saved off the /etc/fstab and pasted the mount points into the new fstab.

If you really would still like me to file a new bug, OK, but I am convinced the resolution to one will be the resolution to the other.

Thanks,

Walt
