  The rlm_dbm module is deprecated, and should not be used.

  All of the functionality is has is now available in the files
module.  That module was fixed in 2.0 to be very fast.  It was fixed in
2.1 to support dynamic reloads.  It has been tested with 100,000 entries
in the users file, and is sufficiently fast for most purposes.

linking gdbm_compat in rlm_dbm

2009-02-17 Thread Damjan 
I've noticed that the check that ./configure script does in order to
find out if gdbm si used only tries to link with gdbm_compat.

But the man page of gdbm says:
  If you wish to use the dbm or ndbm compatibility routines, you must link
  in the gdbm_compat  library as well.  For example:

  gcc -o prog proc.c -lgdbm -lgdbm_compat

and indeed on any vanilla system this is the case.
Debian, OTOH have patched their libgdbm_compat.
