When I add the --with-pam option in my configure command I get the following error: checking for pam_start in -lpam... no configure: error: Can't build with PAM support: libpam not found PAM is most certainly installed on the machine: ii libpam-modules 0.79-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules for PAM ii libpam-runtime 0.79-5 Runtime support for the PAM library ii libpam0g 0.79-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules library Dovecot from package worked just fine with PAM. Also this file already exists: cat /etc/pam.d/dovecot #%PAM-1.0 @include common-auth @include common-account @include common-session I have run ldconfig etc. And I have the following files (all in /lib): /lib/libpamc.so.0 /lib/libpamc.so.0.79 /lib/libpam_misc.so.0 /lib/libpam_misc.so.0.79 /lib/libpam.so.0 /lib/libpam.so.0.79 So it seems that configure is not checking the right places for the libpam library? How can I tell it to look in /lib? Also what does (auto) mean (--with-pam (auto)): it's confusing. It gives the impression that, like (default), this option is added 'automatically'. Cheers, Jan

Im still curious about this: " Also, when configuring, what does (auto) mean (--with-pam (auto)): it's confusing. It gives the impression that, like (default), this option is added 'automatically'.
