I just did some upgrades from 2.2.8 to 3.1 on about 3 different boxes.  I
have had three problems so far.  

One is the fact that when I go to /usr/src and do a make install compat_2_2
it fails on all three machines in three different places. Someone had
mentoined to me that there is a package of the compat_2_2 install available
from /stand/sysinstall but I could not find it.. if anyone can tell me
where this package is available from I'd be grateful.

The second problem is when I went from 2.2.8 -> 3.1 as soon I was done with
the upgrade and rebooted the machine with a new kernel my old master.passwd
files did NOT work.  It seems that the default encryption method has
changed?  Because on a 3.0 -> 3.1 upgrade the passwd files worked fine..
its only on the 2.2.8 -> 3.1 that I had to boot into single user mode to
change the root password and rebuild the passwd database before I could
even log in to the machines.  Is there something I am missing here? Do I
need to convert my old passwd files or what?

Third problem happened on a 3.0 -> 3.1 machine, everything went smooth, but
when I login now I get;

_pam_init_handlers: could not open /etc/pam.conf
then some more critical errors and such..
this looks like I just didnt upgrade my /etc dir the correct way and forget
a pam.conf file.. but I dont remember seeing one in /usr/src/etc...

Any help is greatly appriciated!

Thanks,

GVB
