    Hi all

    I have openssh 3.4p1-2 and libpam-module 0.75-1. For
    some reason my sshd never accepts external
    connections... The auth.log file shows my
    pam_limits.so file has an error in dl_open

    I checked my /lib/security direcory and I have all the
    needed pam lib files including pam_limits.so. Am i
    doing something wrong? Please help me fix this
    problem.

    Is there a way I can byepass PAM for ssh? Do i need to
    install LDAP or something to get this working?
    I am attaching my log here. Why wouldn't the default
    sshd config allow for incomoning ssh access?

    I sincerely appreciate any help
    Thanx
    Mukund
