Hi,

I’m using openSUSE 11.2 (GNOME), When I go to yast and if I try configuring Fingerprint Reader or Windows domain membership I get the following error

Cannot write PAM settings

I want to understand whether its a bug or something related to configuration. When I googled it I found very little threads and it seems its present in the couple of last release as well.

I would apreciate any help.

Regards,
Anant

Have a look at 11.2 and Domains - LinuxQuestions.org.

The fix is, as root in a terminal, do:

cd /etc/pam.d
mv common-auth common-auth-old
ln -s common-auth-pc common-auth

When it is all working, common-auth-old can be deleted.
