I was using PAM in a remaster of 2.x. Now I want to migrate to 5.x to keep everything up. But I cannot find PAM. I tried to compile it earlier, which failed due to no rpc support in glibc.
If I compile my own glic, then things will get quit complex. What should I do?

Did you try using libtirpc as a replacement for rpc in glibc - this is the way blfs does it.

I think a better name for PAM might be SCAM, for Swiss Cheese Authentication Modules [...] - Patrick Volkerding

RPC was dropped from glibc several versions ago. Upstream decision.

So you were saying that I could user libtirpc when compiling PAM? I will try that.

You mean I should not have used it? Then how do I do some controllable auth? I mean some privilege check from client side.

Hi magicloud
Since tinypoodle did not post any alternatives or explanations I'd guess he posted that because he felt it was humorous.
If you require PAM just build it.

It's a quote from Slackware 9.1 change log more than 10 years ago, which has been discussed a lot ever since.
A google search with the quote in "double quotes" would render 3040 results, you can form your own opinion ;)

Yes, it worked, without any modification.

Yes, did that. Some people say PAM is evil but did not come up with an alter....

Good - it would be much appreciated if you could submit libtirpc and pam as extensions

It will be my honor. But I do not know the routing, besides .tcz, what should I do, where should I submit?
