>Environment:
FreeBSD rock.varda.lan 4.4-STABLE FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE #20: Thu Oct 18 18:06:26 BRST 2001     root@rock.varda.lan:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CUSTOM  i386
>Description:
After compiling it, installing and setting it up, it doesn't authenticates users on system's user database through PAM as proposed. Apache asks user for a username/password and refuses access all the time. /var/log/messages presents these lines everytime a user tries to authenticate via web:

Dec  4 13:26:13 rock httpd: adding faulty module: /usr/lib/pam_unix.so
Dec  4 13:26:13 rock httpd: unable to dlopen(/usr/lib/pam_unix.so)
Dec  4 13:26:13 rock httpd: [dlerror: /usr/lib/pam_unix.so: Undefined
symbol "pam_get_item"]
 
The /usr/lib/pam_unix.so is set as default:
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  4828 Oct 18 19:03 /usr/lib/pam_unix.so

Searching the web for this problem, it appears to happen only on FreeBSD. Forum posts have no replies.
>How-To-Repeat:
Simply install it, enable the module on Apache (made automatically by port install) and set a directory to authenticate through it, as documentation states:

        AuthType Basic
        AuthName "secure area"
        require valid-user
