Hi All, I'm looking for a way (a module, a technique) to perform the usual (local) Linux-PAM authentication on a per-user basis. That is: I need to have a different authentication stack for each user of a Linux machine. Googling around, I found this very interesting "pam_per_user" module: http://www-dev.cites.uiuc.edu/pam/ http://www.feep.net/PAM/pam_per_user/ Created by Mark D. Roth in 2002. I tried to compile and install it on my Linux Mint 8.0 machine but apparently the code is so old that the compiler is unable to compile it. BTW: I have got this error: alex@alex-laptop /media/Shared/Sources/pam_per_user-0.4 $ make gcc -o pam_per_user.so.1 pam_per_user.o strlcpy.o -lpam -ldl /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.4.1/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In function `_start': /build/buildd/eglibc-2.10.1/csu/../sysdeps/i386/elf/start.S:115: undefined reference to `main' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [pam_per_user.so.1] Errore 1 Anyway, I'm not interested in fix it at the moment (because a I do not want a customer-supported solution, if I can avoid it). Rather, I would like to know if any kind of per-user authentication system has ever been planned/included in the main PAM module collection or if anybody knows of an alternative to PAM that implements such a protocol (OpenPAM, e.g.). Thanks in advance for your attention. PS: No, if you are thinking of it, the PAM_ListFile module included with my distro cannot solve my problem. It just adds a ACLs logic to PAM, so that you can define "who can access what".
