Okay FYI, using the theory that a problem shared is a problem solved, I have found an answer;

/etc/pam.d/login

auth required pam_securetty.so
auth sufficient pam_unix2.so use_first_pass
auth required pam_unix2.so try_first_pass
auth required pam_nologin.so
.
.
.


This works and doesn't break the existing auth or login mechanisms.

Cheers 

Jack
