I am working with debian 3.1. I installed exim as a mail server. In order to enable stmp authentication with (md5 support) /etc/password (ie through pam), I installed pam_exim following the instructions at http://www.e-admin.de/pam_exim/ : * I downloaded latest version of Linux-Pam-modules from http://kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/ (http://kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/pre/library/Linux-PAM-0.80.tar.gz) , untarred in /usr/local/ and inside it downloaded pam_exim from http://www.e-admin.de/pam_exim/pam_exim.tgz * configured and make all. all the 'so' files where in respectives modules directory, so I finally did "make install" which i should not have done. It installed all the pam so's in /lib/security replacing the old ones. * Exim authentication worked fine with pam_exim.so, *** But all the system authentication broke including normal login on tty. Now the system is locked. Non other authentication works including ssh Please Help. Any help is appreciated. PS:I can get in the box by booting in single user mode but cannot revert back. _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
