unable to su - due to authentication issue

I'm building my pam.d entries from scratch, and have run into a problem with su - not authenticating.

here is the log:

Aug 16 18:03:34 webby PAM-warn[25069]: function=[pam_sm_authenticate] service=[su] terminal=[ttyp1] user=[root] ruser=[Alan] rhost=[<unknown>]
Aug 16 18:03:35 webby su[25069]: pam_authenticate: Authentication failure
Aug 16 18:03:35 webby su[25069]: - ttyp1 Alan-root

the rhost= entry I am having trouble resolving.  There appears to be no need for a rhosts.conf file or similar.
