Hm. I'm now having issues with SSH and sudo as well :(

When I try to login with SSH, I find the following in syslog:

Nov 14 13:00:30 dewup-ww02 sshd[25175]: error: PAM: Authentication failure for vz6tml from localhost

When I do sudo, I get:

Nov 14 13:01:50 dewup-ww02 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): authentication failure; logname=vz6tml uid=0 euid=0 tty=pts/40 ruser= rhost=  user=vz6tml

/etc/pam.d/sudo is the default file; ie:

# File autogenerated by pamd_mimic_system in pam eclass


auth    include         system-auth
account include         system-auth
password        include         system-auth
session include         system-auth

/etc/pam.d/sshd is also default:

#%PAM-1.0

auth       include      system-auth
auth       required     pam_shells.so
auth       required     pam_nologin.so
account    include      system-auth
password   include      system-auth
session    include      system-auth

And /etc/pam.d/system-auth is also default:

#%PAM-1.0

auth       required     pam_env.so
auth       sufficient   pam_unix.so try_first_pass likeauth nullok
auth       required     pam_deny.so

account    required     pam_unix.so

password   required     pam_cracklib.so difok=2 minlen=8 dcredit=2 ocredit=2 try_first_pass retry=3
password   sufficient   pam_unix.so try_first_pass use_authtok nullok md5 shadow
password   required     pam_deny.so

session    required     pam_limits.so
session    required     pam_unix.so

Even after rebuilding openssh (4.5_p1) and sudo (1.6.8_p12-r1), I still
cannot use those applications.
