+INSTALL for pam_pwdfile PAM module - Charl P. Botha <cpbotha@ieee.org>
+$Id: INSTALL,v 1.1 2000-08-28 07:52:46 cpbotha Exp $
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This file is the quick and dirty on how to get pam_pwdfile compiled on your
+system.  As per usual, I can not be held responsible for the results of the
+application of this information.
+
+1. Get the Linux PAM source code tarball.  Currently, this is at:
+http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/pre/library/Linux-PAM-0.72.tar.bz2
+
+2. Extract the tarball somewhere convenient:
+bunzip2 -c Linux-PAM-0.72.tar.bz2 | tar -xvf -
+
+3. Prepare pam_pwdfile
+cd Linux-PAM-0.72/modules
+tar -xzvf /where/you/put/it/pam_pwdfile-0.2.tar.gz
+cd ..
+
+4. Prepare Linux-PAM
+rm default.defs
+ln -s defs/whatever.defs default.defs (on my system whatever == debian)
+
+5. Also, it seems one of the modules needs a little help:
+cd modules/pam_pwdb
+edit Makefile
+search the dependency for $(CHKPWD), add $(EXTRALS) to $(CC) line
+(Alternatively, you can just delete any modules that cause problems, see the
+note at the "make all" step)
+
+6. cd ../.. (so that you're back in Linux-PAM-0.72)
+   make all
+   NOTE: if you only need pam_pwdfile and some of the other modules are
+         causing you problems during compilation, go and delete them (i.e.
+	 delete the whole modules dir, e.g. rm -rf modules/pam_pwdb) and then
+	 restart make all in the top level directory.
+	 
+7. When you're done, there should be a pam_pwdfile.so in modules/pam_pwdfile;
+   copy this into your pam modules directory. (this is /lib/security/ on my
+   debian 2.2. system)
+   
+8. You should now be operational.
+
+
+Remember that pam_pwdfile is packaged as a .deb and is part of the official
+Debian distribution.
