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. |
