Are you sure that your sshd is PAM-enabled?  What version of sshd are you
using?  I do not think that F-Secure's uses PAM (I may be out of date on that),
while openssh may or may not depending on compile options.  I also recently
built opensshd and found that contrary to READMES, it did not seem to 
automatically build on my linux box with PAM enabled, and I had to explicitly
give --with-pam or some such on the configure line.  Not sure if that is
true in general or was a quirk with my machine.
