Dear PAM list,
I recently had a problem in compiling pam_mkhomedir.c (actually, in compiling the whole package) on Solaris 2.8; I managed to work it out, and I think I've spotted a bug in pam_mkhomedir.c #ifndef PATH_MAX, which affects 0.78 and HEAD.
See the patch at http://www.sys-net.it/~ando/Download/Linux-PAM-sysnet.1.2004-11-28.patch (for CVS HEAD as of half an hour ago). A better solution is to (optionally?) #include <limits.h>; the rest of the patch is simply to avoid leaving broken code around.
A partially related issue is that Solaris 2.8 apparently does not support asprintf(), which is used only in libpam/pam_handlers.c, and can be easily worked around by a malloc() and a snprintf(). I can provide a patch for that as well.
Sincerely, p.
