    On that note, I found a similar problem with pam_cracklib. I had the same
    syslog error but it was complaining about crypt.

    Feb 7 14:26:36 hosvrlog passwd: PAM unable to
    dlopen(/lib/security/pam_cracklib.so)
    Feb 7 14:26:36 hosvrlog passwd: PAM [dlerror: undefined symbol: crypt]
    Feb 7 14:26:36 hosvrlog passwd: PAM adding faulty module:
    /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so

    So I changed the Makefile for pam_cracklib to the following:

    from
    MODULE_SIMPLE_EXTRALIBS=-lcrack
    to
    MODULE_SIMPLE_EXTRALIBS=-lcrack -lcrypt

    and it seems to work fine now.

    Found in syslog after adding pam_lastlog module to pam.d:

     PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_lastlog.so)
     PAM [dlerror: /lib/security/pam_lastlog.so: undefined symbol: logwtmp]
     PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_lastlog.so

    As it seems to be, pam_lastlog depends on libutil.so (where logwtmp
    leaves), but not linked with it. It's trivial to add -lutil to
    link command of pam_lastlog, but for now, with new autoconf stuff,
    this should be in configure.in (as not all platforms have -lutil
    and/or logwtmp in it, and some (?) ever does not have logwtmp),
    so I'm not shure how to correct this Right Way... And this is
    a more general question than just about this pam_lastlog issue.

    This was/is on all pam releases since 0.71!.. Does anyone uses
    pam_lastlog at all? :)

    Regards,
     Michael.
