Hello, Please see attached for a patch to mod_auth_pam that adds extended group auth support to mod_auth_pam. In other words, this patch allows you to auth by ANY group a user is a member of, not just their primary group.

I noticed that Samba didn't have any trouble auth'ing by extended groups, so I set out to port the Samba /etc/group auth code to mod_auth_pam. This patch is the result of that. However, note that I found a bug in the Samba 3.0.21c code, so it's a little different than that code. I plan to submit a bug fix to the samba project shortly if the bug still exists in their source (I wrote this patch over a month ago, so I'm not sure about the current state of things).
Looking back, it's actually been two months since I wrote the patch, and comparing the patch with Samba today, I think I might have imagined the bug in Samba when in fact it was merely a bug in my port of the samba code. I can't see the bug anymore. :) It was getting really late when I discovered the supposed bug anyway, so it's very possible it was just a bug in my patch. Either way, the patch works, so let me know.
