Ubuntu Auth Issues with new repository code..

[Howard Leadmon]

   I hear what your saying, but if you read and follow the repo page, it 
says run update, and then upgrade.   Also as a test, I did remove the 
old 2.2 code, and installed the new 2.3 code, and again authentication 
fails.

  I am sure I may be missing something stupid, but the bottom line is, 
how can I track down why it will not auth using PAM under the newer 
code, when even looking at the auth modules, the configs appear to be 
the same on 2.2 and 2.3, so I didn't see any adjustments I could 
actually make..
