All of a sudden, my exim is getting failures from pam. I'm not sure whats
going on, but it was working fine earlier today, and I made no changes and
now exim gets failures from pam each time. Hopefully someone here can help
me out.
Here's my /etc/pam.d/exim file (copied straight from RedHat's exim-3.31 RPM
for RH 7.1):
#%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
and if I exim in -d9 mode, I get this:

but the password passed across IS the correct password. Like I said, it
worked fine before. I'm stumped as to whats up.
Thanks!
Dan
