    Hello all!!
    I have to authenticate using pam_userdb.so but it cant open (or find
    or recognize) the dbm file(s). (Debian woody, pam version 0.72).
    cat /etc/pam.d/pop
    auth sufficient pam_userdb.so db=/etc/mailsystem/users debug
    grep /var/log/auth.log
    pam_userdb[665]: Verify user `tom' with password `xxxx'
    pam_userdb[665]: user_lookup: could not open database
    `/etc/mailsystem/users'
    I tried old version of dbm file format (.dir/.pag, version 1.x, made
    with 'tie()') and also the new one (version 6, made with 'dbmopen()'). For
    the new one, I tried to use filenames such 'users' and 'users.db'. All
    times I get the error: user_lookup: could not open database
    `/etc/mailsystem/users'.
    Some hint?
    PS: I asked to debian-user list and other lists without returns =(
    Also, I know its also a DBM question, but here there are big chances
    another one to know such problem, and the solution =)
    Thanx
    Tom
