Hai Bandi , Thanks for forwarding to help me. The problem was with permission issues on that libpam_mkdir.1 and i copied that into /usr/lib/security/ folder and properly mentioned in /etc/pam.conf of 11.11 PA RISC machine. Similarly I changed permission values & copied to /usr/lib/security/hpux32 and properly mentioned in /etc/pam.conf of 11.23 LR {IPF machine. The above solution is solved my problem and can create /home/dir.
