For along time after hacking a /etc/shells parsing function into imap I found that pam could do it better.
the following is what to put in your redhat /etc/pam.d/imap file
file permissions you should look at before changing and back up the old imap file in /etc/pam.d first.
Make sure you dont break the lines with some editor like nano or pico unless you use the -w flag with them and no spaces just the raw text. I find this particular pam recipe works best with Mark's code.
- ------------snip---------------- #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so auth required /lib/security/pam_unix_auth.so try_first_pass auth required /lib/security/pam_shells.so account required /lib/security/pam_unix_acct.so password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so password required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so use_first_pass session required /lib/security/pam_unix_session.so - ------------snip----------------
I would also like to thank Mark Crispin for te code base from which i work Its been a lot of fun and sometimes painfully to hack but its a great piece of work. Although i disagree in your ideas about configure.auto*, and what have you. I can not thank you enough for your contribution to what my uses of your code have been.
So formally
thank you Mark Crispen. your a genius.
Sincerely,
- -aaron waller
