Your passwd contains the user with @domain?
I don't think so.
you tried to auth as user eric...@metropolitan.org.za via PAM, but your
/etc/passwd would know erickom only. Hence, try to auth without domain.
I uncommented the above
# System users (NSS, /etc/passwd, or similiar).
# In many systems nowadays this uses Name Service Switch, which is
# configured in /etc/nsswitch.conf. <doc/wiki/AuthDatabase.Passwd.txt>
passdb {
driver = passwd
# [blocking=no]
#args =
}
and commented the pam authentication.
see below the log:

Now you try with another passwd driver and access /etc/passwd without PAM,
but you have a shadowed passwd system. Revert to passdb pam and try the
username without domain.
