| 1 | OpenPAM is an open source PAM library that focuses on simplicity, |
|---|
| 2 | correctness, and cleanliness. |
|---|
| 3 | |
|---|
| 4 | OpenPAM aims to gather the best features of Solaris PAM, XSSO and |
|---|
| 5 | Linux-PAM, plus some innovations of its own. In areas where these |
|---|
| 6 | implementations disagree, OpenPAM tries to remain compatible with |
|---|
| 7 | Solaris, at the expense of XSSO conformance and Linux-PAM |
|---|
| 8 | compatibility. |
|---|
| 9 | |
|---|
| 10 | These are some of OpenPAM's features: |
|---|
| 11 | |
|---|
| 12 | - Implements the complete PAM API as described in the original PAM |
|---|
| 13 | paper and in OSF-RFC 86.0; this corresponds to the full XSSO API |
|---|
| 14 | except for mappings and secondary authentication. Also |
|---|
| 15 | implements some extensions found in Solaris 9. |
|---|
| 16 | |
|---|
| 17 | - Extends the API with several useful and time-saving functions. |
|---|
| 18 | |
|---|
| 19 | - Performs strict checking of return values from service modules. |
|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | - Reads configuration from /etc/pam.d/, /etc/pam.conf, |
|---|
| 22 | /usr/local/etc/pam.d/ and /usr/local/etc/pam.conf, in that order; |
|---|
| 23 | this will be made configurable in a future release. |
|---|
| 24 | |
|---|
| 25 | Please direct bug reports and inquiries to des@freebsd.org. |
