Debian (Unstable) problem with SSH and PAM



Hi all

I have openssh 3.4p1-2 and libpam-module 0.75-1. For
some reason my sshd never accepts external
connections... The auth.log file shows my
pam_limits.so file has an error in dl_open

I checked my /lib/security direcory and I have all the
needed pam lib files including pam_limits.so. Am i
doing something wrong? Please help me fix this
problem.

Is there a way I can byepass PAM for ssh? Do i need to
install LDAP or something to get this working? 
I am attaching my log here. Why wouldn't the default
sshd config allow for incomoning ssh access?

I sincerely appreciate any help
Thanx
Mukund
