If you're unable to log in via VNC, then that's a much more serious error and one that's not at all explained by these log errors: the absence of this "optional" module should not cause any authentication failures, and it was on that basis that the change was made to enable this module. Please open a separate bug report about this issue and provide a link to it here. We will need to pin down this VNC problem, which may warrant rolling back the PAM config changes; the logging issue itself should be fixable with a small patch, but I currently have no explanation for why you would experience login failures with VNC that would be fixed by installing libpam-smbpass. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
