I understand that... I looked at all of the *pam* modules in
SUSE 9.0 and none of them provided that particular
library... :-(

But of course, SUSE provides unix authentication, it just
must use another library I guess, probably pam_unix.so which
does exist. What doesn't exist is the pam_pwdb.so.

Is pwdb needed for pam authentication? Can it be done with
pam_unix? Here are the pam libraries included in my system:

# ls /lib/security/
.                pam_group.so      pam_nologin.so
pam_unix2.so
..               pam_homecheck.so  pam_passwdqc.so
pam_unix_acct.so
pam_access.so    pam_issue.so      pam_permit.so
pam_unix_auth.so
pam_chroot.so    pam_lastlog.so    pam_pwcheck.so
pam_unix_passwd.so
pam_cracklib.so  pam_limits.so     pam_rhosts_auth.so
pam_unix_session.so
pam_debug.so     pam_listfile.so   pam_rootok.so
pam_userdb.so
pam_deny.so      pam_localuser.so  pam_securetty.so
pam_warn.so
pam_devperm.so   pam_mail.so       pam_shells.so
pam_wheel.so
pam_env.so       pam_make.so       pam_stress.so
pam_xauth.so
pam_filter       pam_mkhomedir.so  pam_tally.so
pam_filter.so    pam_motd.so       pam_time.so
pam_ftp.so       pam_ncp_auth.so   pam_unix.so
