my login attempts were from OS 9.1. Cleartext would be fine. I disabled guest by
specifying only uams_clrtxt.so in my uamlist. Of course I tried adding other
non-guest UAMS to the list, even though I'm not certain the Mac OS supports
them. Which UAM are your users currently authenticating with?
Guess I'd better try the RPM. :)

are you running os 9? i've had problems with user authentication from 8.6 and
earlier. once i moved everyone to os 9 i was able to disable cleartext
passwords
on the shares. i'm running 1.5pre3 on redhat 7.0 boxes. you might try adding
"-uamlist uams_clrtxt.so" to your afpd.conf if you are using one of the 1.5preX
(just to get a login, then you can config for crypto later). if you are
suddenly
able to log in, you know it's a uams issue. then you can either update the mac
os if you need to, or figure out what's going on with pam.
i also liked the other walt's advice on using an rpm. i've had good experience
with mine.
