This implies that you've manually copied the contents of /etc/pam.d/common-*
into /etc/pam.d/sshd, instead of using the includes as-is. Is there a
reason for this?

Note that by omitting pam_unix here, sshd won't honor password expiry set
for any local accounts.

Have you tried adding 'debug' to the pam_ldap line here? Was there any more
log output when the 'debug' option was passed to pam_localuser (which you
seem to have added, then commented out)?

The output and PAM config suggest the problem is most likely with the
pam_ldap module, but so far there's insufficient information to say what the
problem is.
