Package: libpam-modules
Version: 1.0.1-5+lenny1
Severity: normal

I think I found what could be a bug on pam_unix.so module, specifically
on passverify.c routine, if NIS map is used and /etc/passwd password
field has lower-case x character (as specified into man 5 passwd entry).
In this case, the if condition at line 167
if (strcmp((*pwd)->pw_passwd, "*NP*") == 0)
will evaluate to FALSE and the unix_chkpwd will not be called.
