Those settings also look fine. This does not appear to be a
misconfiguration. Try reinstalling the PAM libraries (all one line):

dpkg -l | grep "libpam" | awk '{print $2}' | xargs apt-get install
--reinstall

This won't help you figure out what broke, but it should fix it. If you want
to find out exactly what the problem is, run 'su' under 'strace' to see
where the errors occur.
