So sorry for the multiple posts
The gdm greeter screen shows now but I get an ICEAuthority  error on login
to a user, also the root user iss not showing up in the list of users(is
this intentional or a security feature, how can I show this)

I ran the command correctly and I got the following output
root [ /etc/pam.d ]# ls -l  /etc/pam.d/gdm*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 477 Oct 24 08:01 /etc/pam.d/gdm
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 444 Oct 24 08:01 /etc/pam.d/gdm-autologin
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 481 Oct 24 08:01 /etc/pam.d/gdm-fingerprint
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 495 Oct 24 08:01 /etc/pam.d/gdm-password
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 502 Oct 24 08:01 /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 344 Oct 24 08:01 /etc/pam.d/gdm-welcome
