This is the uam with DHX not defined.

This means that the configure script didn't find OpenSSL.
If it was installed via the source package, and isn't in
the "normal" place, you can specify the parent directory
of openssl's include and lib directories at ./configure time
with:

./configure --with-ssl-dir=path_to_parent_directory

To get shadow passwords working without pam, specify:

./configure --with-shadow

You will need openssl version 0.9.4 installed from source to make
randnum work.
IIRC, version openssl 0.9.5 doesn't work right now.
