Ditto, I fixed it a different way - I moved the old pppd back again. The
file seems to have dissappeared now, but it was fairly obvious - "ls -l
/usr/sbin/*ppp*" should find it.
Having pppd linked against libcrack does worry me somewhat - is it to check
for insecure passwords or is there something else going on?
It'd be great to see PAM support in Debian - kerberos and AFS would be much
better served.
