    Thanks a lot to everyone who answer.. And thank to all the vacation
    messages which makes me feel quite sad...:(

    Anyway, Johan Bengtsson was the closest one. The problem was that the
    CDE screenlock use dtession as a method of authentication, and I didn't
    configure it in /etc/pam.conf, so I changed that and everything is
    working perfect know...

    Again, thanks to everyone, the original post is below.

    Cheers!

    -> I checked sunsolve, google, and the archive and I
    ->couldn't find anything...
