[Openvpn-users] [repost] Problem with per-User authentication methods

I'm using openvpn 2.0.2-1 on Debian/unstable
 
OpenVPN works like a charm, per User configuration stuff also works.
But there's one thing I cannot get to work on a per-user basis:
 
If I put:

plugin /usr/lib/openvpn/openvpn-auth-pam.so openvpn
 
into /etc/openvpn/server.conf, ALL users have to authenticate using
what I defined in /etc/pam.d/openvpn as:
 
---------------- snip ---------------
# PAM configuration for OpenVPN

# Read environment variables from /etc/environment and
# /etc/security/pam_env.conf.
auth       required     pam_env.so # [1]

# Angeblich soll das SecurID erzwingen
auth       required     pam_securid.so debug
---------------- snip ---------------

This is the PAM module provided for the RSA SecurID tokens which
generate a OTP every minute. This works. I enter a wrong
username/password combination, I'm, being rejected. I enter the correct
data, I'm let in. Life is good.

But now to the problem: If I put this into 
/etc/openvpn/ccd/hildeb.vpn.charite.de:

------------ snip ------------
plugin /usr/lib/openvpn/openvpn-auth-pam.so openvpn
ifconfig-push 172.28.0.5 172.28.0.6
------------ snip ------------

I can enter ANYTHING as authentication data, I'm always let through. I
would expect the per-User configuration to work that way. OTOH, I do
get the IP I explicitly assigned.

Where's the error in my ways?
