I can't find "dlopen" in any of my share libraries. In doing further research, it seems that HP has added "dlopen" only in the 64-bit version of HP-UX 11, which unfortunately I am not running. According to http://www.devresource.hp.com/devresource/Docs/Refs/SunPort/Linkers.html the corresponding library in HP-UX 11.0 32-bit is "shl_load". However, I think it probably shouldn't matter, because mod_auth_pam doesn't call dlopen directly, it just calls the system pam routines through <security/pam_appl.h> right? I still don't quite understand how it all fits together, but I'm trying to learn :-) > btw, if HP-UX knew the ELF spec, they would have made libpam load the > needed libraries themselves...

I can't say I understand it all, but it appears that the 64-bit HP-UX 11 does use ELF, but the 32-bit uses their SOM binary format that PA-RISC has used for the last 10 years. It sounds like they are trying to update/improve in 64-bit, but I'm just not there.
