Randy, I responded to this quite a while ago but do not see that response here.. Looking locally I don't see a saved copy so I must have closed the program I was writing from another desktop or something. Thanks for your input but I don't think that was the problem. I do run a local webserver (home lan) and run sendmail which isn't set up as a server though. Further, the output of `equery files pam' only shows two places where configs might be. The update site referred to in the error message doesn't tell where to look or if so I missed it Anyway a grep in /etc/pam.d for any of the modules mentioned in the error shows nothing but a few commented lines all in /etc/pam.d/login. grep -r 'pwdb\|radius\|timestamp\|console' # If you want to enable pam_console, uncomment the following line # and read carefully README.pam_console in /usr/share/doc/pam* # session optional pam_console.so Now the good part: `emerge -vC pam' followed by a continuing of `emerge -vuDPN world' Seems to have gotten over the pam hurdle. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
