Everything seemed to work well when setting pam_usb up on my laptop. Followed the same directions as when I set up my desktop an hour prior. However, when testing pam_auth via su command, I get the following error:

┌──(neocube㉿kali2)-[/root]
└─$ su neocube

  • Authentication request for user "neocube" (su)
    sh: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
  • Access denied.
    Password:

This is of course while I have the usb plugged in. Not sure why I am having an issue with my laptop when everything is the same as desktop (same OS, version, etc) and the configuration is the same. Any ideas?

Most likely you're are using my version of pam_usb and are experiencing mcdope#180.

Guess this issue can/should be closed and the discussion continued over there.
