1.192.1. RHBA-2011:0766: bug fix update

An updated pam_pkcs11 package that fixes various bugs is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The pam_pkcs11 package allows X.509 certificate-based user authentication. It provides access to the certificate and its dedicated private key with an appropriate PKCS (Public Key Cryptographic Standards) #11 module.

This updated pam_pkcs11 package includes fixes for the following bugs:

The system returned the following debug message to standard error when you logged in with a smart card from the command line and "require smart card login" was enabled:
```
ERROR: pam_pkcs11.c:334: no suitable token available
```
With this update, the message is no longer returned. (BZ#586149)
The system returned the following spurious message to standard error when you entered an incorrect personal identification number (PIN) when logging in from the command line with a smart card:
```
ERROR: pam_pkcs11.c:445: open_pkcs11_login() failed: Login incorrect
```
With this update, only the message "Login incorrect" is displayed and the error details are logged. (BZ#625509)

All users of pam_pkcs11 are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which resolves these issues.
