Hi Antun,
I ran into this problem last October (with
openssh-server-3.9p1-8.SL.3.18.i386.rpm, also from the 'contrib'
region); the problem is that this version of openssh installs a file
/etc/pam.d/sshd which points to a non existing pam_loginuid.so file.
Thus, pam-enabled logins were broken after installing this RPM. Is this
what you are seeing as well? At the time I contact the SL repository
author and he removed the offending RPM from the repository. I will
contact him again if this particular bug has resurfaced.
cheers,
