Bug#219377: PAM and shadow and ! and *



Does sshd use PAM's "account" (authorization) mechanism (as opposed to
"auth" (authentication)) when UsePam is enabled? If so then pam_unix
should be able to say "ah, the password starts with a !, therefore the
account is disabled"... according to Steve Langasek[0] this is the case.
