Maybe I'm wrong, but I thing KDE binaries into Slackware don't use pam... or
pam can be used dinamically? I mean If I have pam installed then KDE uses it
if not it doesn't...
Where did you get KDE binaries?

Maybe I&#39;m wrong, but I thing KDE binaries into Slackware don&#39;t use
pam... or pam can be used dinamically? I mean If I have pam installed

I traced the problem and authentication system works with the following
files:<br>
<br>
/etc/pam.d/kde<br>
#%PAM-1.0<br>
 auth       include      system-auth<br>
 account    include      system-auth<br>
 password   include      system-auth<br>
 session    include      system-auth<br>
<br>
/etc/pam.d/system-auth<br>
auth required pam_tally.so onerr=fail deny=5 unlock_time=21600<br>
<br>
The only problem now is that any password is accepted as valid.<br>
<br>
Any idea?<br>

After following a lot of troubleshooting on the web I still cannot make<br>

After trying all sorts of things I still cant make it work. Funny thing<br>
is that the version of KDE that comes with Slackware 13 (4.2.4) works

I have the library libpam.so.0.81.9 in my /lib directory<br>
