* Alexey Nogin <[email protected]>: | PAM stands for "pluggable authentication modules" and it means that you | have freedom to configure authentication any way you want, for each | service separately. In particular, the example config that's included with | my RPMs shows how to set up sn, so that it uses its own password file (not | connected in any way to usual /etc/passwd, /etc/groups, etc). Ahh. SASL is similair to this, just not so widely known.
