Try that. I guess that the problem is not caused by a particular

Actually I guess that whatever transaction caused rpm.i586 to be
installed screwed up more things than just rpm. Maybe it installed some
nice i586 versions of important pam modules... who knows.
Possible, but I did not have the user/login problem before replacing rpm. ???? I have added another user, but still have the same problem. No use copying the home directory as the new user cannot login. I used yast to create the user and the accounts are both enabled.
Is there a way to regenerate permissions? Will try rebooting while awaiting an answer.
hard working on a wdoz box. Thanks all for vmware :^)......
