Tim,  I checked out the /opt/kde2/share/config but found no refrences to kde2 in the kdmrc file..  Im not real sure what I am looking for right now.
 
I get the kde2 Login gui when from console as su I do telinit3, then telinit 5.  However any user that tries to login, root, bill, etc..(about 20) Login fails and I recieve the PAM messages, no others in any of my logs other than secure.. 
going to check around in what lonnie wrote...

Can you return things to the way they were and start over?

Can you log in as root and edit the login manager from within KDE? I can't
remember if KDE 2.1.1 on eD2.4 let you configure that or not. If you can,
remove all users then add them back again.

Of course, if you can't login using kdm, I guess that'll be tough. I never
tried to remove KDE1 from eD2.4, so I can't offer too much help on this.  I
assume you've read everything on the SxS site regarding the removal of KDE1.

Have you looked at your kdmrc file  in /opt/kde2/share/config/?

HTH,
Tim
