I have the following set in my conf disable_plaintext_auth = no auth =default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = passwd /etc/passwd auth_passdb = shadow it has been a long time since I studied up on shadow and passwd, but to my recall if you have in your passwd file something to the effect of name:*:123456 that the * means you are using shadow for your passdb, right?
