No info in /var/log/auth.log nor in /var/log/xdm.log. I guess that it does not use PAM because I tried to log a nonexistent user. The login was refused, but no message in any log at all. At first I didn't create /etc/pam.d/xdm. So xdm should refuse login and a lot of messages in /var/log/auth.log should written. I have strict policy in /etc/pam.d/others. That is why I guess it does not use PAM.
I think you're right. It looks like we're missing something crucial in the host.def. I think you need to add #define HasPam to host.def or pam won't get linked in. What's the result of this command (adjusting the prefix to where it's installed)? $ ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm You should at least libpam.so. If not, you're gonna have to rebuild, sorry. It's been a long time since I built Xorg-6, but I think if you still have the sources, you can probably do something like `make -C programs/xdm clean; make Everything' after updating host.def. Not sure there. Could you let me know if adding the missing #define fixes the issue? If so, it'll need to be added to the book. -- Dan
