According to my experience - forget it! 
SRSS for Linux is a 32bit thing.  I tried once to install it on a x64 Debian 
box. 
Step by step I installed all the necessary 32bit libraries and a 32bit JRE 
(necessary since the Java code somewhere in SRSS loads some dynamic library - 
of course a 
32 bit one). Then I realized that the SRSS PAM modules /opt/SUNWut/lib/pam_*.so 
are 
also 32bit only. So you need a 32 bit PAM stack, and each and every program 
that 
uses the PAM stack (login, ssh, gdm,...) must be 32 bit, too... 
 
One possible solution is a 32 bit userland + 64 bit kernel combination.
A better solution...perhaps we should all add to our sig files 
"Ceterum censeo SRSS should be open-sourced"
