I get the errmsg: auth|security:err|error dovecot-auth PAM: load_modules: can not open module /usr/lib/security/pam_prohibit That file is 444 root:security What is wrong here? Also, I'm using plain UINX authentication, but PAM keeps trying to run. How do I turn it off? I'll probably eventually want to use PAM; how do I get it to look in /etc/pam.conf instead /etc/pam.d...or will it find it automatically? -- ===Stewart Dean, Unix System Admin, Henderson Computer Resources Center of Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York 12504 sdean at bard.edu voice: 845-758-7475, fax: 845-758-7035
These sound like basic sysadmin questions, not dovecot questions, but here goes.

Don't know what system you are on so it's hard to be sure. -frank
