Subject: [ptxdist] [RFC 0/2] PAM
Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2019 23:44:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191126224419.GA949464@lenoch> (raw)

Hi there!

Recently I found that for some projects the only remaining utility
I'm using from busybox is login. And that there is no alternative.
Until now...

But as util-linux' login needs PAM and PAM is pretty complex comparing
to busybox login I suggest incremental approach. You can find basic
support in two patches (well RFCs) sent as a reply to this mail.
Later we can introduce GLOBAL_PAM_OPTION (similar to
GLOBAL_SELINUX_OPTION) and make packages use it - brief list is:
cifs-utils, cups, ecryptfs-utils, inetutils, libcgroup, lighttpd,
lxc, monit, openssh, openvpn, policycoreutils, postgresql, proftpd,
pureftpd, samba, strongswan, sudo, systemd, weston and xorg-app-xdm.

Comments welcome.
