And how do i start the pam service in my box?

Thanx

SuSE uses PAM. I think you may need to install pam-devel to get the needed library. Generally, when installing from an rpm package, you may need to install a certain dependant package. When installing from source, you will often need the *-devel version of the same package as well.

Thanx guru for the help.
