I think, the permissions of kcheckpass are OK: -rwsr-xr-x 1 root bin 28924 Nov 8 2004 kcheckpass* > Btw you can check the authentification system more simply by running > kcheckpass; echo $? > instead of locking the desktop :-) That's cool - that simplifies testing a lot...! :) On my Solaris 10 box, the above line leads to a return value 2 (AuthError): kcheckpass; echo $? Password: 2 On a Solaris 9 machine, I get a return value 0. I built kcheckpass/kdebase with these options for configure: --with-shadow --with-rpcauth --with-pam=yes When installing my KDEs under Solaris 10, I used the template for /etc/pam.conf provided by Stefan Teleman (ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.4.3/contrib/Solaris/SUNSTUDIO10/INSTALLATION/PAM.INSTALL/etc.pam.conf.diff). Here, I don't see any entry for kcheckpass. Is this OK? /etc/rpc and /etc/services also contain entries just for dcopserver and dcop.
