pam_unix_auth.so.1 failed to authenticate the user, as shown by
the diagnostics below:

(It returns 0 if everything went OK).

The password may be correct, but some other prerequisites needed for
pam_unix_auth.so are obviously missing. Try enabling debugging
diagnostics for pam_unix_auth.so. Usually this is done by giving it
"debug" or "audit" as its argument, but this may depend on the flavor
of PAM you are running.
