If your system has a separate libcrypt.so, then your pam_unix.so module
isn't linked against it, and you're getting an error when the PAM library
tries to demand-load it.  If sshd isn't working right with pam_unix, odds
are that other PAM-aware applications won't work right, either.  Update
your PAM installation.

Hope this helps,
