Shouldn't it be related to TCB? This PAM config completely ignores the
fact that auth info in default ALT Linux installation is done through
TCB, therefore pam_tcb should be used instead of pam_unix. Below is our
system-auth-local which is included by default by other services:

#%PAM-1.0
auth     required       pam_tcb.so shadow fork prefix=$2a$ count=8 nullok
account  required       pam_tcb.so shadow fork
password required       pam_passwdqc.so min=disabled,24,12,8,7 max=40 
passphrase=3 match=4 similar=deny random=42 enforce=users retry=3
password required       pam_tcb.so use_authtok shadow fork prefix=$2a$ 
count=8 nullok write_to=tcb
session  required       pam_tcb.so
session  required       pam_mktemp.so
session  required       pam_limits.so

Daniel, you'd probably need to supply an ALTLinux-customized PAM config 
for your application made along these lines. Better, use the following 
(not tested):

#%PAM-1.0
auth     include        system-auth
auth     required       pam_listfile.so 
file=/etc/qtsmbstatusd/qtsmbstatusd.users onerr=fail sense=allow item=user
account  include        system-auth
password include        system-auth
session  include        system-auth

It relies on the fact that we have system-wide 'system-auth' PAM config 
which does common magic (like system-auth-local above).
