policycoreutils-1.33.12-1.el5
libselinux-1.33.3-2.el5

I copied /etc/selinux/mls/contexts/securetty_types to
/etc/selinux/mls/contexts/securetty_contexts and now am prompted to
authenticate after which I get the following errors:
pam_open_session failed with Cannot make/remove an entry for the
specified session
pam_close_session failed with Cannot make/remove an entry for the
specified session
