Got a more interesting one now.. I'm logged in as an LDAP non-privileged user. From the menus, I select System|Administration|Add/Remove Software. I add a couple packages such as screen and dialog. On clicking Apply, I am warned: "You have failed to provide correct authentication. Please check any passwords or account settings." I don't see any place to provide this authentication in the menus. If I exit out and try to run the "gpk-application" (not sure if this is the correct app) I get a warning that I'm running as a privileged user. It's caching my credentials somewhere, because I know that at one point I was prompted to enter root password. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
