Re: Etch: PAM unable to resolve symbol

[Jerome BENOIT <jgmbenoit@mailsnare.net>]

Hello,

thanks for the reply.

As the below hints gives no results, I understood that
the messages may come from elsewhere.
By commented, I found that it is 

pam_pwdfile.so pwdfile=/etc/bunch/passwd

was the one which outputs the messages.

Is there any alternative ?

Thanks in advance,
Jerome
