The bug is still there in Ubuntu 8.04.1. I am using pam_unix2.so as here
we use md5 passwords over NIS, and pam_unix.so fails to update this type

Tried backporting of the current pam (0.99.10.0), but they need some debian /
ubuntu specific patches (@include directives, etc.)
I was not successful in adapting them for this version.
Eighter the @include of the pam config files does not work, or after
trying to adapt the patch,
The problem still exists and there is no way to use better password
security than md5 in gutsy with working screensavers. (also in hardy and
debian sid/experimental)
There has been some activity in fedora, and I think they have
implemented sha256 in glibc, but this is still not usable with the
I checked the current status of Fedora 8.
They now provide sha256 and sha512 password hashing.
This is implemented in the glibc crypt routines and works with the standard
pam_unix.so module.
The only change necessary is to replace the md5 string in the pam config file
with eigther sha256 or

Hi there
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in
it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with
the development version of Ubuntu, Hardy Heron?
I've traced the bug in the pam_unix2.so module.
The call to getspnam_r() in pam_sm_authenticate() (file unix_auth.c:280) sets
errno to 13 (EACCESS) when called from gnome-screensaver.
A normal login does return the entry in you shadow file.
I've not enough experience with pam and the system
Addon: I've tried changing the rights on /etc/shadow to rwrr and
authentication works fine. So it definitly is an access violation. Is
the gnome-screensaver process in group shadow in ubuntu?

I have the same problem, and I use feisty.
The reason I found this is because I'm experimenting with my
fingerprint-reader, and since try_first_pass is unrecognized in standard
pam_unix in feisty, I need to use pam_unix2

Disregard the thing about try_first_pass not working. Turns out
try_fist_pass is the string that fails :-)
Sorry for that.
