It is more like a workaround as it disables PAM without having to recompile X. Or at least that's the way I read it. Surely there is a way to really use PAM authentication? If this *is* the official fix then I should probably commit it to src/etc/pam.conf because everyone setting up a new system is going to run into this very same problem if they install X. BTW, thanks for the quick reply. :) -steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
