Enabling PAM in Adaptive Server  Configuring operating system files

Chapter 16: External Authentication

Determining which PAM module to use

Both Linux and Solaris have predefined PAM modules. You can choose to either use one of these modules or to create one of your own. When creating your own modules, follow the guidelines in your operating system documentation on creating a PAM module.

NotePAM modules you create should comply with RFC 86.0 “Unified Login With Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM).” Adaptive Server supports the authentication management module of the RFC. It does not support the account management, session management, or password management modules.
