PAM

[chenn]

Hi,
recently I'm working on some heavy postinstall scripts for Kickstart installations. My problem is PAM, as no one seems to know how to set it up and there are no (good) online-tutorials around.
If someone knows some good book or site please let me know!

regards
chenn

PAM means Plugable Authentication Modules. It is quite common under most Unixes although I haven't found any good articles/books/online-docs about it yet... regards

Even if it isn't it might give you some insight on PAM.
