Thank you very much for clarifying that.
I have just spoken with my colleagues and the change was made hastily during a
policy issue discussion (ultimately "PAM may not be used (because it could be
used) to circumvent the 'PermitRootLogin no' policy on this kind of machine")
and well, not communicated or documented. \:
As such, we'll have to discuss it internally next week, but I guess the right
way to go will be to re-enable PAM and then adjust /etc/pam.d/ according to our
needs. But at least I now understand why only *some* of the dup'ed machines
exhibited that behavior---it was only those affected by the policy change.
Thanks so much for your time, I think this issue can be closed as PEBKAC. (c;
