This does not appear to be a misconfiguration. Try reinstalling the PAM libraries (all one line): dpkg -l | grep "libpam" | awk '{print $2}' | xargs apt-get install --reinstall This won't help you figure out what broke, but it should fix it. If you want to find out exactly what the problem is, run 'su' under 'strace' to see where the errors occur. Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
