Yesterday I installed pam_shield and followed the testing suggested and

today I find that I cannot get to my email account, I can login via ssh 
okay (uses keys) but su and sudo give
segmentation faults. I am guessing due to the pam module causing a problem.
As I cannot do remote login as root and sudo and su use pam I appear to 
have locked myself out.
    

Same here. Is it a 64-bit system?

  
No my server is 32 bit and I think there were no seg faults in actuality
- the pam_shield module was causing a ?? response to su and sudo auth requests and they reported segmentation error - nothing in the logs - I assume that it had somehow locked my account and thus all auth requests to pam were being dumped. It also appeared to do the same to the login prompt on the console - any user entered just went back to the the login prompt no request for the password,
I have thus commented out the auth line I added yesterday until I work out what went wrong.
I am wondering if I entered the auth line in the wrong place??
Anyone know where it should go?
The instructions from the INSTALL file in the tar.gz that I used was not centos / rh specific.

Would the maintainer care to give a hand?
Thanks,
