After upgrading from 0.72, these syslogs started appearing:
ssh(pam_unix)[7765]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0
tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=mephisto user=root
Proftpd gives the following logs, though a different passwd file is used for
the service:
Unable to open password file /etc/passwd for reading: No such file or
directory
I can login with both services without any problems.
Here is my /etc/pam.d/ssh (default)

This appears to have been an ssh bug, not a PAM bug, and was fixed prior to
sarge's release.
The 'Unable to open password file' error is proftpd-specific, and definitely
not related to PAM.
