Hi Mark,
looking at my own logs I agree that the two 'no' items are the
problem. When we install Linux-PAM, after 'make install' we run
chmod and then we move some libraries from /usr/lib to /lib, and
finally we make symlinks to them from /usr/lib.
I guess some or all of your symlinks are broken : try running 'file'
on them to see if that reports breakage.
If the symlinks are indeed broken, please review what you did in the
last install of Linux-PAM. The instructions in the book should
work. And to fix that : if you can login with PAM then what is in
/lib should be fine, so just recreate the symlinks from /usr/lib for
each of libpam*.so.
