Why are you compiling with PAM support if you are using Redhat 6.1?
Redhat likes to default to md5 password hashes instead of standard crypt.
Netatalk has no way to detect which you are using, so it defaults to
crypt.

You are logging in with DHX encrypted passwords, which is good, but it
does not use the .passwd file. So setting up the .passwd file isn't doing
any good. Recompile with PAM support enabled...
