SLD: Failed to start the PMD Connection thread. (PM_THREAD_FAILED_TO_START).

Hello,

I have a client with an 18 year old SCO Openserver 5.0.5 server.

They can't find their installation media.

They are experiencing an error at login:
*LOGIN: ERROR- Failed to initialize policy manager. (IFOR_PM_FATAL)
The status from the policy manager daemon (PMD - /etc/ifor_pmd) indicates
that a serious error condition has occurred. Login is allowed, but the
system administrator is strongly advised to consult the SCO online Support
Solutions Library (SSL) for assistance; if the SSL is inaccessible,
please contact your SCO Support representative.

Some research on this error indicates an issue with the PMD daemon.

Running a 'ps -ef' shows that the daemon is not running. I tried to start it via a '/etc/ifor_pmd' command and the following message is given:
SLD: Failed to start the PMD Connection thread. (PM_THREAD_FAILED_TO_START).

I'm not sure where to go on this to further debug and/or resolve.

Can anyone in this forum give me some direction.

Thanks.

Bryan Hunt

PAM_CK_CONNECTOR(8)						 ConsoleKit Manual					       PAM_CK_CONNECTOR(8)

NAME

       pam_ck_connector - Register session with ConsoleKit

SYNOPSIS

       pam_ck_connector.so [debug]

DESCRIPTION

       The pam_ck_connector PAM module registers a login session with the system-wide ConsoleKit daemon. This PAM module should be used with
       caution; only local login managers such as login(1) should use this. Since the ConsoleKit daemon can accept both an tty and an X11 display
       the normal parameters set by PAM are not always useful.

       An application can therefore override these with the PAM environment variables CKCON_TTY, CKCON_X11_DISPLAY and CKCON_X11_DISPLAY_DEVICE
       (the application should remember to unset these before starting the login session).

       Also note that the ConsoleKit daemon may reject registration attempts if the given set of data are inconsistent with each other. More more
       information, see the ConsoleKit documentation on the OpenSessionWithParameters() method call on the org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager D-
       Bus interface.

       If registration with the ConsoleKit daemon succeeds, this PAM module will set the environment variable XDG_SESSION_COOKIE which is used to
       defined membership of a login session.

       This PAM module has the side effect that it creates a connection to the system message bus that is kept open until the session ends. This
       is used by the ConsoleKit daemon to track the life-cycle of the session and, as such, should the login manager crash, the session will be
       properly unregistered.

OPTIONS

       debug
	  Print debug information.

       nox11
	  Do not create a session if PAM specifies an X11 display instead of a /dev/tty terminal.
