[Fwd: NT/smbpasswd authentication for Linux/Solaris 2.6 (pam_smb-1.0)]





-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----


This is an upgraded version of the pam_smb module which supports both
Solaris 2.6 and Linux.

The major changes in this release are some cleaned up code in the
validator and GNU configure support to make it easier to compile.

Hopefully the Solaris 2.6 support is complete, it works for me what more
can I say :-) ..

This modules allows Linux users to be authenticated from an NT or Samba
server. If the samba server supports encrypted (smbpasswd) passwds this
module can be used to authenticate users using the smbpasswd file.

We are using it here so users can logon to Linux/NT/Solaris boxes without
us having to keep two sets of passwords. Users still require password
entries on the Linux boxes but *'ed passwords should work or if a password
entry exists it will try to use this first and then the remote server is
this fails. 

Current version is at:
http://www.csn.ul.ie/~airlied/pam_smb/pam_smb-1.0.tar.gz
or
ftp://ftp.csn.ul.ie/pub/linux/pam/pam_smb/pam_smb-1.0.tar.gz          

E-mail me with any comments or problems, I can't promise they'll get fixed
but at least I'll know about em :-)

Dave.
