[SlugBug] sshd pam_mount error

I have kerberos, samba, winbindd, authenticating my users on a SUSE 9.2
Linux box against Microsoft 2003 Active Directory.

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

"Jan 21 15:38:07 SUSE92 PAM-warn[30346]: function=[pam_sm_acct_mgmt]
service=[sshd] terminal=[ssh] user=[dawsona] ruser=[<unknown>]
rhost=[localhost]
Jan 21 15:38:07 SUSE92 sshd[30345]: Accepted keyboard-interactive/pam for
dawsona from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 port 1443 ssh2
Jan 21 15:38:07 SUSE92 sshd[30347]: pam_mount: error trying to retrieve
authtok from auth code
Jan 21 15:38:07 SUSE92 sshd[30347]: pam_mount: error trying to read password
Jan 21 15:38:07 SUSE92 sshd[30347]: fatal: PAM: pam_open_session():
Permission denied"

I've googled for this and  found 

https://www.redhat.com/archives/pam-list/2004-August/msg00011.html

amongst others ..but no solutions :-(

has anybody managed to get this going .. or got a workaround, or should I
give up now
