And to answer my own question.....

# password      required        pam_cracklib.so retry=3 type=
password        optional        pam_pgsql.so
password        sufficient      pam_unix.so md5 use_authtok shadow nullok
shadow
password        sufficient      pam_pgsql.so use_authtok
password        required        pam_deny.so

seams to solve the problem...

Peter.
