This file is the quick and dirty on how to get pam_pwdfile compiled on your

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-0.75.tar.bz2
2. Extract the tarball somewhere convenient:
-bunzip2 -c Linux-PAM-0.72.tar.bz2 | tar -xvf -
+bunzip2 -c Linux-PAM-0.75.tar.bz2 | tar -xvf -
3. Prepare pam_pwdfile
-cd Linux-PAM-0.72/modules
+cd Linux-PAM-0.75/modules
tar -xzvf /where/you/put/it/pam_pwdfile-x.y.tar.gz
cd ..
-(x.y represents the pam_pwdfile version, e.g. 0.4)
+(x.y represents the pam_pwdfile version, e.g. 0.7)
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)
+5. in Linux-PAM-0.72/ do:
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
+ delete the whole module dir, e.g. rm -rf modules/pam_pwdb) and then
restart make all in the top level directory.

+6. 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)

Remember that pam_pwdfile is packaged as a .deb and is part of the official
Debian distribution.
