Re: pam probs after latest updates

[Daniel Bonniot <Daniel.Bonniot@inria.fr>]

Did you get a question about updating the configuration file
/etc/pam.d/other ?
I got that question because some comments have been added, but accepting
the update would have changed the important line:
  password required       pam_unix.so md5
into
  password required       pam_unix.so

I suspect doing so might lead to authorization failures like you get.
Then you might want to revert to the first version (but beware, I have
no deep knowledge of pam).

Hope this helps.
