What does "error reading login count from pmvarrun" mean?
- by n3rd
I have the above mentioned error in my
/var/log/auth.log
file and just try to figure out if this is a harmelss statement. As far as I understand does pmvarrun tells the system how many active session (e.g. logins) a user has on the system.
Full output of auth.log
