Stephen, I think the problem is that EL, Suse and Mandriva use system-auth whereas Debian (and Co.) call it common-auth. Same goes for account, session and password.
So, it is the same thing with different names. Ways to solve this within the xrdp repo 1- have a default file that works for Debian, Ubuntu, etc and an extra file (xrdp-sesman.EL) that works for EL, Suse, etc 2- have a default file that works for EL, Suse, etc and an extra file (xrdp-sesman.Ubuntu) that works for Debian, Ubuntu, etc Either the Debian people or the EL people will have to copy a file in their building scripts. But that's trivial to whoever is able to package anything :-) I really think the repository should keep *both* files, so that packagers don't have to carry along a separate files all the time. We can work together to have 1) ou 2) so that the central repository works for everyone. Suggestion: ask Jay to integrate the pam file that works for EL in the way he prefers and adapt your script accordingly, to build directly from the repository.
