"TO SUMMARIZE: I have problems WHEN: I log in via SSH to the non-master NIS+ 
server with a non-local account (NIS+ account) with a Windows client 
via 'Password' authentication."

As of 3.7p1, PasswordAuthentication does not use PAM.  You need to use
ChallengeResponseAuthentication (and probably disable PasswordAuthentication).

It works on your NIS master server because getspnam and friends can get the
encrypted password directly from the shadow file, so PasswordAuthentication works.
