I've already tried having only require statements with pam_permit and
pam_smb_auth in the pam conf file for the process I need to check
authentication against NT.
It doesn't read the this conf file unless the user is in NSS.
Is there some compile time option that enables pam to enforce that an account
must be found in NSS?
I need to turn it off right. Does anyone know where it is?

I am running Linux-PAM-0.75.
