That's is NOT true. Upgrade your PIX code to version 6.1(1) and the passwd prompt will go away. I am not sure about version 6.0(1). I've been using it on model 515, 525 and 535 without problem with TACACS.
Another thing, I usually take TAC advice and recommendation with a grain of salt. Those guys probably read things out of some scripted answer provided to them by someone else. On the other hand, if the advice comes from one of Cisco developer, then it is the correct advice.
