Remote login problem

On Gutsy AMD64 the Remote Console will not login. I found the following solution:

I had to replace the pam configuration (/etc/pam.d/vmware-authd) with the following:

auth sufficient /usr/lib/vmware-server/lib/libpam.so.0/security/pam_unix.so shadow nullok
auth required /usr/lib/vmware-server/lib/libpam.so.0/security/pam_unix_auth.so shadow nullok
account sufficient /usr/lib/vmware-server/lib/libpam.so.0/security/pam_unix.so
account required /usr/lib/vmware-server/lib/libpam.so.0/security/pam_unix_acct.so

The solution below, including common-auth and common-account DOES NOT work for me.

#%PAM-1.0
@include common-auth
@include common-account
