.rhosts and PAM authentication

I have a mach11 cluster that is configured for PAM authentication using a custom PAM module. Now, I'm trying to get transparent remote logins to work from another host, but the auth isn't working. If I remove the PAM auth, the remote connections work. Is there a way to get .rhosts entries to work while still using PAM - perhaps an Informix_auth PAM module or something like that? I guess as an alternate I can setup an entry for each (PAM and NON-PAM), but then I'll also need to add another SLA in the connection manager, and I'm trying to keep things simple. -Justin
