/bin/ls: cannot read symbolic link /proc/$$/exe: Permission denied

In Novell Privileged User Manager 2.2.2 (and greater), SLES specific rpm's were released for SLES10 and SLES11.

The recommended solution for SLES servers is to do the following:

1.  Install the SLES specific rpm from Novell Privileged User Manager 2.3 download.
2.  Install the  updated aaa_base from the SLES 11 SP1 or SLES 10 SP3 channels.


For SLES 11 SP1, apply aaa_base-11-6.30.1 (or greater)

SLES 11 SP1 x86-64 - https://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=bnvzJ25msBc~
SLES 11 SP1 x86 - https://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=FXexhxAPwHI~

This update for aaa_base fixes for the following issues:

    * The shell initialization for Novell Privileged User Manager produces a misleading "Permission denied" error message.
    * New shell names pcksh, cpcksh and rpcksh reflect name space changes of the former rush shell.


For SLES 10 SP3, apply aaa_base-10-12.58.1 (or greater)
