I am not sure we can find any standard that backs the pthread prohibition for PAM modules. It was bad before because libpthread was dlopen() and operated in a process that did not had threading initialized, but as I understand, the LD_PRELOAD way address that problem. -- Emmanuel Dreyfus http://hcpnet.free.fr/pubz [email protected]
