(Pluggable Authentication Modules)
Written by Rob Riggs <rob+pypam@pangalactic.org>
Initial Release 1999/08/17 1:21 AM, version 0.4.2
Current Release 2007/04/17 10:12PM,
version 0.5.0
This release supports the core PAM API. There is still some missing
functionality, but
it should implement enough of the API for most needs. There is not
much in the way
of documentation at this point. If you are familiar with the PAM API,
a quick glance
at the sample program should get you going.
- This is an Alpha release.
- This release will have bugs
- This release is probably quite insecure
- You have been warned.
- Enhancements and bug-fixes gladly accepted.
