I thought having these would just give errors?..

passdb pam {

This shouldn't be commented out if you want to use pam as passdb.

Hi

Thanks for your help, I tried what you suggested, and I still seem to not getting it right.

passdb { args=/etc/passwd }

passdb pam { # Service name or * as parameter. * means the authenticating service name # is used, eg. pop3 or imap. #args = dovecot args= /etc/passwd }

Any tips and or advice would be greatly appreciated.
