Re: BUG #5121: Segmentation Fault when using pam w/ krb5

Both actually...

When just the "return" is commented out the routine goes into a loop and
the following shows up in the logs...

<rdouglas(at)tacacs 10.0.20.38(47254) 2009-10-16 01:12:18.935 EDT>LOG:

When just "ereport" is commented out I still get a sigfault...

But when both are commented it seems to work...

Which is it that makes the difference ... the ereport or the return?
