Using pam_mount version 0.9.21 and OpenSSH 3.9p1 on SUSE LINUX 9.2

Privilige Separation is disabled

I have pam_mount mounting home folders from a remote Windows server happily
on the Linux box, with local logins ( ie using pam.d/login )

Users can logon happily to using ssh ( ie using pam.d/ssh ) but

pam_mount gives errors when trying to mount the remote directory for
an ssh session

Has anybody got a working pam sshd config with pam_mount I can crib or a
workaround ? thanks
