What behavior are you seeing?  I'm running a RH 6.2 install, and 3.7.1p1
generally seemed to work, other than PermitEmptyPasswords, which seemed
to do nothing when pam was enabled.

There seems to be significant PAM related trauma resulting from the 3.7+
PAM code re-write in Solaris and (at least older) Linuxes.

Patched versions of 3.6.1p1 seem to work just fine. :-)
