Ok, so by default it will check /etc/pam.conf first and then /etc/pam.d/ngircd?
I think so, yes.
Do you have an example /etc/pam.d/ngircd config I can use or try? With my config posted above it does not seem to work..
And I don't think that it is a problem with your /etc/pam.d/ngircd file, but with your /etc/pam.conf -- which it "could not open" (auth.log). Why? I don't know. Do you have such a file? The permissions are ok? (ls -l /etc/pam.conf)
