Does this look familiar?
# dpkg-reconfigure libpam-runtime
Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) determine how authentication,
authorization, and password changing are handled on the system, as well as
allowing configuration of additional actions to take when starting user
sessions.
Some PAM module packages provide profiles that can be used to automatically
adjust the behavior of all PAM-using applications on the system. Please
indicate which of these behaviors you wish to enable.
1. Unix authentication 2. none of the above
(Enter the items you want to select, separated by spaces.)
PAM profiles to enable:
Pressing enter with nothing in "PAM profiles to enable" disables
passwords. Selecting "1" enables normal Unix passwords.
