Description d3coder 2022-07-19 14:46:58 UTC
SUMMARY
When screen is locked, sometimes it locks user from logging in for 5, 10, 15 or more mins.
I know that this happens because of many log in attempts, but this happens even without any log in attempt.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Lock screen
2. Sometimes it locks out user


OBSERVED RESULT
User is locked for 5, 10 or more mins

EXPECTED RESULT
User is not locked

I recall this being an issue for Arch users with a certain PAM setup in the past, but can't find the details right now. Any chance yo remember, Antonio?
Comment 2 d3coder 2022-07-20 06:28:31 UTC
I have default Arch setup, no configs modified. This started happening after update to 5.25
Comment 3 d3coder 2022-07-20 12:24:57 UTC
It happened again. Actually looks like when system was locked due to inactivity, it already was in time out.
Doesn't look like there were bad login attempts, but idk. I tried lastb -a and grepped all attempts for today. It printed one row and that happened several hours ago.

I was about to say that this stopped from happening, but it happened again several times.

It's some kind of PAM issue. I'd recommend you ask for help in an Arch-specific venue. Thanks!
