== Reproducing the Issue == What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Modify config.h with the following: Uncomment #define FAILLOG_PWAUTH Uncomment #define MAX_FAIL_COUNT and change the value from 40 to 3. Uncomment #define RESET_FAIL_COUNT

2. Compile with 'make'.

== Expected and Observed Results == What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

After giving the wrong password for a user 3 times, I should receive exit status 7 when I enter the password correctly.

Instead, pwauth gave me exit status 0. The MAX_FAIL_COUNT was not working with FAILLOG_PWAUTH. Based on what I saw in the code, I don't think it will work with FAILLOG_OPENBSD either, but I did not test that configuration.

== Software Versions == What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

pwauth 2.3.10 ubuntu

== Proposed Solution ==

To make it work, I did the following:

a) In main.c, change line 110 to be: #if defined(FAILLOG_JFH) || defined(FAILLOG_OPENBSD) || defined(FAILLOG_PWAUTH)

b) In fail_log.c, change line 132 to be: result= (flog.count < MAX_FAIL_COUNT);

c) In fail_log.c, change line 135 to be: if (result && flog.count > 0)

Wow. How did that get past me?

Thanks for the fixes - they are in the svn archive and will be in the 2.3.11 release.
