If you are running 3.1 or later, or -current, you _are_ using PAM. Login uses it automatically, and it's not something you enable or disable. If you don't have a valid /etc/pam.conf file then login issues loud and repeated complaints to syslog, which will appear on the system console. > Yesterday, after a build of 4.0-CURRENT of that day, I decided to > try enabling PAM by copying /usr/src/pam.conf to /etc. There is no file /usr/src/pam.conf.

Maybe you're trying to mix and match a.out and ELF files. Try running "file" on /usr/bin/login as well as your libpam and pam modules. John -- John Polstra j...@polstra.com John D.
