Emergency UNIX and Linux Support

Hi otheus
/etc/pam.d/passwd file also doesn't exist .
I checked on all servershere running HP -UX 11.23

Ah, try adding these lines:

Code:

passwd auth required libpam_hpsec.so.1
passwd auth required libpam_unix.so.1
passwd account required libpam_hpsec.so.1
passwd account required libpam_unix.so.1

Hi otheus

Thanks for all the pains you are taking but still on adding these four lines the error message doesn't gets dispalyed but the passwd command doesnt run ..
Just to verify I did an echo $? which returned a non zero (1) response code after i executed passwd command

pam_chauthtok: Shared object load failure this message is suppressed now but still the passwd command doesnt work ..

Pls help

So the command runs but now does nothing except exit with error-status of 1, right?

yes otheus , absolutely correct

So we're getting closer to the solution, but I'm really lost. See if this link is relevant to you at all: Help -

thanks otheus .. but it seems reinstallation is the only solution
Will wait for a day or two and then I will get on with the reinstallation ..

thanks
