In it you said "I installed PAM on my 5.1R version of FreeBSD." If I understood this all correctly, you are attempting to use Linux-PAM on FreeBSD. Which should be fine. Linux-PAM is cross-platform and is available for NetBSD too. Please note that FreeBSD comes with its own BSD-licensed implementation of PAM, called OpenPAM. It is similar, but it is different code and has some differences. It is possible you overwrote the native PAM. Also, you installed the pam_mysql.so from the port -- I'd assume that this pam-mysql as available from the FreeBSD ports hierarchy was configured and built to work for a native FreeBSD PAM. Try not to mix and match PAM -- maybe reinstall the native FreeBSD OpenPAM. Or if you insist on using Linux-PAM on FreeBSD, try to build the pam_mysql (sourceforge project) from source, be sure to build using Linux-PAM headers and libraries instead of the native provided OpenPAM versions. Good luck. And please let me know ... Jeremy C. Reed http://bsd.reedmedia.net/ _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
