Not working with newly created user in ubuntu 12.0.4

[Prawyn]

Hi,
I tried this module with login service. Its working with the user, which we created during os (ubuntu 12.0.4) installation. And we created some other users with adduser command. For that users I am getting this issue,

$ python pam.py -a deepak #Command I userd
<PamException 7 'Authentication failure'>

Please help me to fix this issue.

This is an error from PAM, not from python-pam, look in syslog for error
messages (/var/log/syslog probably).

Maybe you created this user with locked login access or something. Maybe
try using a different service (like ssh or sshd, I never remember which
one).

Anyway, python-pam is just the messenger reporting that PAM failed to
authenticate your user.
