That's not good, since Debian already has PAM installed : ouzo:/etc/pam.d# dpkg --list | grep pam ii libpam-krb5 1.0-12 PAM module for MIT Kerberos ii libpam-modules 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules for PAM ii libpam-runtime 0.76-22 Runtime support for the PAM library ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules library ii libpam0g-dev 0.76-22 Development files for PAM > * 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 Make sure you have networking going, and issue : apt-get install --reinstall libpam-modules libpam-runtime libpam0g regards, Igmar _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
