What is wrong here?
Maybe /usr/lib/security is not world readable.
Also, I'm using plain UINX authentication, but PAM keeps trying to run. How do I turn it off?
On some (many?) systems, "plain UINX authentication" *is* PAM authentication.
I'll probably eventually want to use PAM; how do I get it to look in /etc/pam.conf instead /etc/pam.d...or will it find it automatically?
This generally happens automatically. Don't know what system you are on so it's hard to be sure.
