[-- Attachment #1 --] I posted a question about PAM & Passwd on 4.2. It seems that passwd "ignores" any passwd lines in pam.conf. I tried the pam.d thing (Run Linux compatibility, copy rc.d/* from Redhat 6.1 to BSD. When you try to log in, the login terminates, and syslog shows: /kernel: pid 22202 (login), uid 0: exited on siglan 10 (core dumped) Rename pam.d, and all is happy (which means I'm back to pam.conf). I have 300Mb swap (all unused) and 26Mb RAM inactive. I don't think that memory / out of swap space is the problem in this case. (I gather from what I could see on the net, that the main culprit for signal 10 seems to be swap space / memory) Can anyone give me an example line for the passwd entry in pam.conf (seems to be happier, although it seems to ignore my changes) I'm using the following: passwd password required pam_xxxxxxx options_options...... I tried pam_cracklib.so with it's options, as well as pam_passwdqc and it's options. I am being ignored. Regards.
