So did I. But I still remember when last time tried the new upstream
version (2.3.xx) and this PAP auth from passwd NEVER EVER worked.
And I tell you... I downgraded AGAIN to 2.2.0f and the problem disappeared
again, now it works. But I badly need to upgrade somehow since 2.2.0f is
compiled against libc5 and this screws up wtmp no matter what wrapper is
installed... :-x

Well, true, since I did it as well. No PAM success.

It's in Bo.... original...

No, I doubt it's config error, since downgrading make it work and
upgrading make it stop. Ouch.

No, since I'm not familiar with that list... if you can, ask them, too...
