*** First you should identify whether you are using xdm,gdm, or kdm. Try each of these: ps -auxw | grep -v grep | grep xdm ps -auxw | grep -v grep | grep gdm ps -auxw | grep -v grep | grep kdm One will produce output. That's the Window Manager you are using. So assuming it's xdm you would look for an xdm file in /etc/pam.d and add the session line. Also you should put the session just before the first session line. Something like this: > auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth > auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so > account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth > password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth > session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so > session required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth > session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so That should do it assuming your xdm/kdm/gdm was compiled with PAM support (I know xdm is by default on RH 7.2 the others probably are too).
