After unpacking the tarball and running 'perl Makefile.PL' and 'make' I was getting an authentication failure in 'make test' Step 9. I checked 'test.pl' (@~ line 137) and noted:
$res = pam_authenticate($pamh, 0);
#$res = pam_chauthtok($pamh);
I modified it to read:
#$res = pam_authenticate($pamh, 0);
$res = pam_chauthtok($pamh);
and ran 'make test' again. This time I received prompts to set a new root password, which I set to the current password, after which Step 9 authorized.
I can only guess that Authen::PAM needs to set a new password as it has trouble reading current passwords, for some reason. Thoughts?
Linux 2.6.16-1.2069_FC4smp i386
PERL v.5.8.6
Authen::PAM 0.16
