Description Pierre LALET 2004-10-20 05:43:33 UTC 
With BSDAUTH, it is not possible to use a login class different from the default
one. This is due to a call to auth_call() without specifying the login class.

This bug is really easy to correct : in xc/programs/xdm/greeter/greeter.c,
function verify(), the call to auth_call() :

	auth_call(as, path, style, "-s", "response", greet->name, 
		  (void *)NULL);

must be replaced with

	auth_call(as, path, style, "-s", "response", greet->name, 
		  lc->lc_class, (void *)NULL);

This fix has been tested and works properly under OpenBSD 3.5.
