Subject: [PATCH] pam_unix: Add logging useful for debugging problems
Two messages added about obtaining the username are guarded
by the debug option as these should not be normally
logged - they can be useful for debugging but they do not
indicate any special condition.
The message about authenticating user with blank password is
still just LOG_DEBUG priority but it is logged unconditionally
because it is somewhat extraordinary condition to have an user
with blank password.
* modules/pam_unix/pam_unix_auth.c (pam_sm_authenticate): Replace
D() macro calls which are not enabled on production builds with
regular pam_syslog() calls.
