PAM is not the Problem...
But the Loginwindow.app is..
It seems it doesn't use PAM at all.
Otherwise i would see debug output from my module in the syslog. Or am
I missing something?

In the past I was able to get an Open Directory server to act as the
auth mechnism for linux and os x machines.
The Linux machines were using pam to auth against the OD server and
the OS X used the OD for auth as well.
I used the dscl to set the homedir path
The home directories were on a 3rd Linux machine, I used the dscl to
set the homedir path for the os x and the linux machines.
I was then able to use pam auth for SVN, ssh, webdav,.... for all
the clients.
Long story short.
It should be straight forward. Get pam auth working for the OS X
clients and map the appropriate path for home dirs in the ldap server.
Here is the man page for pam on OS X.

Hi.
I'm currently integrating 10 iMacs in an existing Linux computer
pool for
our students at the University of Konstanz.
There we have an LDAP Server for authentication, no AD, no NFS/AFP.
Authentication on OS X with LDAP works fine but I have a little
problem with
the homedirectories.
Our sysadmins want me to mount the users home dir via sshfs to the
mac. So
far, no problem. Sshfs works on OS X. But we need to mount the
homedir at
login time (with the password).
You may want to take a look at
