Thank you very much. Unfortunately, we can't use Apple's proprietary code in our distribution.
Hmm, is that because of the license or for ideological reasons?
If it's possible to get PAM working, this would be preferable. Standard interfaces are always better.
Agreed. However, if I'm not mistaken PAM *started* as proprietary Sun software. Apple's Directory Service (or rather Open Directory) is part of Darwin and as such open source: <http://developer.apple.com/darwin/projects/opendirectory/>. Who's to say it won't be a standard soon?
By the way, is there any way for you (and the rest of the Mac OS X user community) to influence Apple to use the standard /usr/include/security for the PAM includes instead of its non-standard /usr/include/pam?
It may be too late for that, but I'll try. -- Sebastian Hagedorn PGP key ID: 0x4D105B45 Ehrenfeldgürtel 156 50823 Köln http://www.spinfo.uni-koeln.de/~hgd/
