Stefan, Thanks for taking the time to ask. I now have the system working. I found the html docs for PAM and copied the /etc/pam.conf from there. That made the PAM part work, but then I couldn't get the KDE to start. I put a bunch of echo $<variable> >> out.file's in the Xsessions and sys.xsession files and tracked it down to an exec $WINDOWMANAGER, where WINDOWMANAGER=kde. I found no executable called kde on this system, so I checked another, working, system and found /opt/kde/startkde -> /usr/X11R6/bin/kde. Did an ln and all is fine with the login. Now I need to find out why I cannot compile "small kde apps". Says I don't have the correct headers. It even has the nerve to suggest that this is _my_ fault! I wonder if it is. Well that's another thread. -regards, Steve Stefan Troeger wrote:

Here I go again talking to my self. I simply set up the /etc/pam.con according to the html docs that come with PAM. Now I get the authentication to take, but I can't get the kde to start. It just restarts the xserver and sends me back to the login screen.
Does the login work when you choose `failsafe' as session type?
