My install of Reality fails with build issues on LINUX

Firstly, please check that all pre-requisites addressed in the Installation Guide have been met, a copy of this can be found here.
 
Secondly, please ensure that all recommended software updates have been installed, these are available from Software Updates.
 
If the build continues to fail then please ensure that the LINUX PAM libraries have been installed, this can be checked by running 'rpm -qa |grep pam'. If these appear to be installed then please check the following:-
 

If the softlink in /usr/lib for libpam.so  is missing or if there is no libpam.a in /usr/lib then Reality will not build. To correct this you can perform the following:-
 
From /usr/lib directory
 'ln -s /lib/libpam.so.0 libpam.so'
Some RedHat ES5 installations do not appear to have created this link.
 
If your Reality installation still fails after performing the above checks then please refer to Reality support request on the Enquiries page and one of our technicians will contact you for further assistance.
