 just upgraded from 3.3-release to 3.3-stable via /stand/sysinstall.  I also 
installed proftpd which uses PAM.  Anonymous users can log into.  But 
regular users cannot.  These errors are produced.

Dec  6 23:45:56 synergy proftpd[3717]: unable to resolve symbol: 
pam_sm_open_session
Dec  6 23:45:56 synergy proftpd[3717]: unable to resolve symbol: 
pam_sm_close_session
Dec  6 23:45:56 synergy proftpd[3717]: PAM(dan): Authentication failure

f I follow the suggestions found in the mailing list archives and 
http://hamster.wibble.org/proftpd/proftpdfaq-8.html and remove the entry 
from /etc/pam.conf (third line shown below), I get the following errors:

ftp auth    required    pam_unix.so         try_first_pass
ftp account required    pam_unix.so         try_first_pass
#ftp session required    pam_unix.so         try_first_pass

Dec  6 23:52:48 synergy proftpd[3727]: PAM(dan): Authentication failure
Dec  6 23:52:48 synergy proftpd[3727]: USER dan: incorrect password 
from mybox.mydomain.org [10.0.0.20] to 10.0.0.100:21

However, if I add the following option to /usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf:

AuthPAMAuthoritative off

the logins work but these errors remain:

Dec  7 00:04:07 synergy proftpd[3779]: PAM(dan): Authentication failure

I think that PAM isn't working here at all.
