vsftpd Authentication Failure - PAM Related?


I have vsftp installed and configured the same way I always have. However when trying to log in it says my log in is incorect, when I know it's not. After some googleing I did see a suggestion to check /var/log/auth.log.

Code:
May 10 20:49:50 xplorer4x4-gbz77 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by xplorer4x4(uid=0)
May 10 20:49:50 xplorer4x4-gbz77 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root
May 10 20:52:40 xplorer4x4-gbz77 vsftpd: PAM audit_log_acct_message() failed: Operation not permitted
Here's my vsftp.conf:

I also checked /etc/pam.d/vsftpd.and compared it against my back up. They match exactly, so I cant figure out what has changed in raring to prevent vsftpd from working like before. Oh I tried to access my machine from the ftp terminal, same problem.
