Adding password changing functions to pam-ssh who allow it to almost completely replace /etc/shadow for authentication purposes. 2. A PAM module for keeping passwords in sync across several machines (in different administrative domains), when changing a password, it ssh's to the relevant machines and changes them there as well. 3.

A PAM module that Linux-vserver or similar isolation systems to give the user a private process namespace and potentially a private view of the filesystem (sort of like Plan 9) when they log on.
