From https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/pam-krb5/: pam-krb5 provides a Kerberos PAM module that supports authentication, user ticket cache handling, simple authorization (via .k5login or checking Kerberos principals against local usernames), and password changing. It can be configured through either options in the PAM configuration itself or through entries in the system krb5.conf file, and it tries to work around PAM implementation flaws in commonly-used PAM-enabled applications such as OpenSSH and xdm. It supports both PKINIT and FAST to the extent that the underlying Kerberos libraries support these features. The reason for this import is to provide an MIT KRB5 compatible pam_krb5 PAM module.

pam-krb5 is a Kerberos PAM module for either MIT Kerberos or Heimdal.
|
|
It supports ticket refreshing by screen savers, configurable
|
|
authorization handling, authentication of non-local accounts for network
|
|
services, password changing, and password expiration, as well as all the
|
|
standard expected PAM features. It works correctly with OpenSSH, even
|
|
with ChallengeResponseAuthentication and PrivilegeSeparation enabled,
|
|
and supports extensive configuration either by PAM options or in
|
|
krb5.conf or both. PKINIT is supported with recent versions of both MIT
|
|
Kerberos and Heimdal and FAST is supported with recent MIT Kerberos.
|
|

|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
pam-krb5 provides a Kerberos PAM module that supports authentication,
|
|
user ticket cache handling, simple authorization (via .k5login or
|
|
checking Kerberos principals against local usernames), and password
|
|
changing. It can be configured through either options in the PAM
|
|
configuration itself or through entries in the system krb5.conf file,
|
|
and it tries to work around PAM implementation flaws in commonly-used
|
|
PAM-enabled applications such as OpenSSH and xdm. It supports both
|
|
PKINIT and FAST to the extent that the underlying Kerberos libraries
|
|
support these features.
|
|
|
|
This is not the Kerberos PAM module maintained on Sourceforge and used
|
|
on Red Hat systems. It is an independent implementation that, if it
|
|
ever shared any common code, diverged long ago. It supports some
|
|
features that the Sourceforge module does not (particularly around
|
|
authorization), and does not support some options (particularly ones not
|
|
directly related to Kerberos) that it does. This module will never
|
|
support Kerberos v4 or AFS. For an AFS session module that works with
|
|
this module (or any other Kerberos PAM module), see pam-afs-session [1].
|
|
|
|
[1] https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/pam-afs-session/
|
|
|
|
If there are other options besides AFS and Kerberos v4 support from the
|
|
Sourceforge PAM module that you're missing in this module, please let me
|
|
know.
|
|
|
|
REQUIREMENTS
|
|
|
|
Either MIT Kerberos (or Kerberos implementations based on it) or Heimdal
|
|
are supported. MIT Keberos 1.3 or later may be required; this module
|
|
has not been tested with earlier versions.
|
|
|
|
For PKINIT support, Heimdal 0.8rc1 or later or MIT Kerberos 1.6.3 or
|
|
later are required. Earlier MIT Kerberos 1.6 releases have a bug in
|
|
their handling of PKINIT options. MIT Kerberos 1.12 or later is
|
|
required to use the use_pkinit PAM option.
|
|
|
|
For FAST (Flexible Authentication Secure Tunneling) support, MIT
|
|
Kerberos 1.7 or higher is required. For anonymous FAST support,
|
|
anonymous authentication (generally anonymous PKINIT) support is
|
|
required in both the Kerberos libraries and in the local KDC.
|
|
|
|
This module should work on Linux and build with gcc or clang. It may
|
|
still work on Solaris and build with the Sun C compiler, but I have only
|
|
tested it on Linux recently. There is beta-quality support for the AIX
|
|
NAS Kerberos implementation that has not been tested in years. Other
|
|
PAM implementations will probably require some porting, although
|
|
untested build system support is present for FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and
|
|
HP-UX. I personally can only test on Linux and rely on others to report
|
|
problems on other operating systems.
|
|
|
|
Old versions of OpenSSH are known to call pam_authenticate followed by
|
|
pam_setcred(PAM_REINITIALIZE_CRED) without first calling
|
|
pam_open_session, thereby requesting that an existing ticket cache be
|
|
renewed (similar to what a screensaver would want) rather than
|
|
requesting a new ticket cache be created. Since this behavior is
|
|
indistinguishable at the PAM level from a screensaver, pam-krb5 when
|
|
used with these old versions of OpenSSH will refresh the ticket cache of
|
|
the OpenSSH daemon rather than setting up a new ticket cache for the
|
|
user. The resulting ticket cache will have the correct permissions
|
|
(this is not a security concern), but will not be named correctly or
|
|
referenced in the user's environment and will be overwritten by the next
|
|
user login. The best solution to this problem is to upgrade OpenSSH.
|
|
I'm not sure exactly when this problem was fixed, but at the very least
|
|
OpenSSH 4.3 and later do not exhibit it.
|
|
|
|
To bootstrap from a Git checkout, or if you change the Automake files
|
|
and need to regenerate Makefile.in, you will need Automake 1.11 or
|
|
later. For bootstrap or if you change configure.ac or any of the m4
|
|
files it includes and need to regenerate configure or config.h.in, you
|
|
will need Autoconf 2.64 or later. Perl is also required to generate
|
|
manual pages from a fresh Git checkout.
|
|
|
|
BUILDING AND INSTALLATION
|
|
|
|
You can build and install pam-krb5 with the standard commands:
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
If you are building from a Git clone, first run ./bootstrap in the
|
|
source directory to generate the build files. make install will
|
|
probably have to be done as root. Building outside of the source
|
|
directory is also supported, if you wish, by creating an empty directory
|
|
and then running configure with the correct relative path.
|
|
|
|
The module will be installed in /usr/local/lib/security by default, but
|
|
expect to have to override this using --libdir. The correct
|
|
installation path for PAM modules varies considerably between systems.
|
|
The module will always be installed in a subdirectory named security
|
|
under the specified value of --libdir. On Red Hat Linux, for example,
|
|
--libdir=/usr/lib64 is appropriate to install the module into the system
|
|
PAM directory. On Debian's amd64 architecture,
|
|
--libdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu would be correct.
|
|
|
|
Normally, configure will use krb5-config to determine the flags to use
|
|
to compile with your Kerberos libraries. To specify a particular
|
|
krb5-config script to use, either set the PATH_KRB5_CONFIG environment
|
|
variable or pass it to configure like:
|
|
|
|
./configure PATH_KRB5_CONFIG=/path/to/krb5-config
|
|
|
|
If krb5-config isn't found, configure will look for the standard
|
|
Kerberos libraries in locations already searched by your compiler. If
|
|
the the krb5-config script first in your path is not the one
|
|
corresponding to the Kerberos libraries you want to use, or if your
|
|
Kerberos libraries and includes aren't in a location searched by default
|
|
by your compiler, you need to specify a different Kerberos installation
|
|
root via --with-krb5=PATH. For example:
|
|
|
|
./configure --with-krb5=/usr/pubsw
|
|
|
|
You can also individually set the paths to the include directory and the
|
|
library directory with --with-krb5-include and --with-krb5-lib. You may
|
|
need to do this if Autoconf can't figure out whether to use lib, lib32,
|
|
or lib64 on your platform.
|
|
|
|
To not use krb5-config and force library probing even if there is a
|
|
krb5-config script on your path, set PATH_KRB5_CONFIG to a nonexistent
|
|
path:
|
|
|
|
./configure PATH_KRB5_CONFIG=/nonexistent
|
|
|
|
krb5-config is not used and library probing is always done if either
|
|
--with-krb5-include or --with-krb5-lib are given.
|
|
|
|
Pass --enable-silent-rules to configure for a quieter build (similar to
|
|
the Linux kernel). Use make warnings instead of make to build with full
|
|
compiler warnings (requires either GCC or Clang and may require a
|
|
relatively current version of the compiler).
|
|
|
|
You can pass the --enable-reduced-depends flag to configure to try to
|
|
minimize the shared library dependencies encoded in the binaries. This
|
|
omits from the link line all the libraries included solely because other
|
|
libraries depend on them and instead links the programs only against
|
|
libraries whose APIs are called directly. This will only work with
|
|
shared libraries and will only work on platforms where shared libraries
|
|
properly encode their own dependencies (this includes most modern
|
|
platforms such as all Linux). It is intended primarily for building
|
|
packages for Linux distributions to avoid encoding unnecessary shared
|
|
library dependencies that make shared library migrations more difficult.
|
|
If none of the above made any sense to you, don't bother with this flag.
|
|
|
|
TESTING
|
|
|
|
pam-krb5 comes with a comprehensive test suite, but it requires some
|
|
configuration in order to test anything other than low-level utility
|
|
functions. For the full test suite, you will need to have a running KDC
|
|
in which you can create two test accounts, one with admin access to the
|
|
other. Using a test KDC environment, if you have one, is recommended.
|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions in tests/config/README to configure the test
|
|
suite.
|
|
|
|
Now, you can run the test suite with:
|
|
|
|
make check
|
|
|
|
If a test fails, you can run a single test with verbose output via:
|
|
|
|
tests/runtests -o <name-of-test>
|
|
|
|
Do this instead of running the test program directly since it will
|
|
ensure that necessary environment variables are set up.
|
|
|
|
The default libkadm5clnt library on the system must match the
|
|
implementation of your KDC for the module/expired test to work, since
|
|
the two kadmin protocols are not compatible. If you use the MIT library
|
|
against a Heimdal server, the test will be skipped; if you use the
|
|
Heimdal library against an MIT server, the test suite may hang.
|
|
|
|
Several module/expired tests are expected to fail with Heimdal 1.5 due
|
|
to a bug in Heimdal with reauthenticating immediately after a
|
|
library-mediated password change of an expired password. This is fixed
|
|
in later releases of Heimdal.
|
|
|
|
To run the full test suite, Perl 5.10 or later is required. The
|
|
following additional Perl modules will be used if present:
|
|
|
|
* Test::Pod
|
|
* Test::Spelling
|
|
|
|
All are available on CPAN. Those tests will be skipped if the modules
|
|
are not available.
|
|
|
|
To enable tests that don't detect functionality problems but are used to
|
|
sanity-check the release, set the environment variable RELEASE_TESTING
|
|
to a true value. To enable tests that may be sensitive to the local
|
|
environment or that produce a lot of false positives without uncovering
|
|
many problems, set the environment variable AUTHOR_TESTING to a true
|
|
value.
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURING
|
|
|
|
Just installing the module does not enable it or change anything about
|
|
your system authentication configuration. To use the module for all
|
|
system authentication on Debian systems, put something like:
|
|
|
|
auth sufficient pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=1000
|
|
auth required pam_unix.so try_first_pass nullok_secure
|
|
|
|
in /etc/pam.d/common-auth, something like:
|
|
|
|
session optional pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=1000
|
|
session required pam_unix.so
|
|
|
|
in /etc/pam.d/common-session, and something like:
|
|
|
|
account required pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=1000
|
|
account required pam_unix.so
|
|
|
|
in /etc/pam.d/common-account. The minimum_uid setting tells the PAM
|
|
module to pass on any users with a UID lower than 1000, thereby
|
|
bypassing Kerberos authentication for the root account and any system
|
|
accounts. You normally want to do this since otherwise, if the network
|
|
is down, the Kerberos authentication can time out and make it difficult
|
|
to log in as root and fix matters. This also avoids problems with
|
|
Kerberos principals that happen to match system accounts accidentally
|
|
getting access to those accounts.
|
|
|
|
Be sure to include the module in the session group as well as the auth
|
|
group. Without the session entry, the user's ticket cache will not be
|
|
created properly for ssh logins (among possibly others).
|
|
|
|
If your users should normally all use Kerberos passwords exclusively,
|
|
putting something like:
|
|
|
|
password sufficient pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=1000
|
|
password required pam_unix.so try_first_pass obscure md5
|
|
|
|
in /etc/pam.d/common-password will change users' passwords in Kerberos
|
|
by default and then only fall back on Unix if that doesn't work. (You
|
|
can make this tighter by using the more complex new-style PAM
|
|
configuration.) If you instead want to synchronize local and Kerberos
|
|
passwords and change them both at the same time, you can do something
|
|
like:
|
|
|
|
password required pam_unix.so obscure sha512
|
|
password required pam_krb5.so use_authtok minimum_uid=1000
|
|
|
|
If you have multiple environments that you want to synchronize and you
|
|
don't want password changes to continue if the Kerberos password change
|
|
fails, use the clear_on_fail option. For example:
|
|
|
|
password required pam_krb5.so clear_on_fail minimum_uid=1000
|
|
password required pam_unix.so use_authtok obscure sha512
|
|
password required pam_smbpass.so use_authtok
|
|
|
|
In this case, if pam_krb5 cannot change the password (due to password
|
|
strength rules on the KDC, for example), it will clear the stored
|
|
password (because of the clear_on_fail option), and since pam_unix and
|
|
pam_smbpass are both configured with use_authtok, they will both fail.
|
|
clear_on_fail is not the default because it would interfere with the
|
|
more common pattern of falling back to local passwords if the user
|
|
doesn't exist in Kerberos.
|
|
|
|
If you use a more complex configuration with the Linux PAM [] syntax for
|
|
the session and account groups, note that pam_krb5 returns a status of
|
|
ignore, not success, if the user didn't log on with Kerberos. You may
|
|
need to handle that explicitly with ignore=ignore in your action list.
|
|
|
|
There are many, many other possibilities. See the Linux PAM
|
|
documentation for all the configuration options.
|
|
|
|
On Red Hat systems, modify /etc/pam.d/system-auth instead, which
|
|
contains all of the configuration for the different stacks.
|
|
|
|
You can also use pam-krb5 only for specific services. In that case,
|
|
modify the files in /etc/pam.d for that particular service to use
|
|
pam_krb5.so for authentication. For services that are using passwords
|
|
over TLS to authenticate users, you may want to use the ignore_k5login
|
|
and no_ccache options to the authenticate module. .k5login
|
|
authorization is only meaningful for local accounts and ticket caches
|
|
are usually (although not always) only useful for interactive sessions.
|
|
|
|
Configuring the module for Solaris is both simpler and less flexible,
|
|
since Solaris (at least Solaris 8 and 9, which are the last versions of
|
|
Solaris with which this module was extensively tested) use a single
|
|
/etc/pam.conf file that contains configuration for all programs. For
|
|
console login on Solaris, try something like:
|
|
|
|
login auth sufficient /usr/local/lib/security/pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=100
|
|
login auth required /usr/lib/security/pam_unix_auth.so.1 use_first_pass
|
|
login account required /usr/local/lib/security/pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=100
|
|
login account required /usr/lib/security/pam_unix_account.so.1
|
|
login session required /usr/local/lib/security/pam_krb5.so retain_after_close minimum_uid=100
|
|
login session required /usr/lib/security/pam_unix_session.so.1
|
|
|
|
A similar configuration could be used for other services, such as ssh.
|
|
See the pam.conf(5) man page for more information. When using this
|
|
module with Solaris login (at least on Solaris 8 and 9), you will
|
|
probably also need to add retain_after_close to the PAM configuration to
|
|
avoid having the user's credentials deleted before they are logged in.
|
|
|
|
The Solaris Kerberos library reportedly does not support prompting for a
|
|
password change of an expired account during authentication. Supporting
|
|
password change for expired accounts on Solaris with native Kerberos may
|
|
therefore require setting the defer_pwchange or force_pwchange option
|
|
for selected login applications. See the description and warnings about
|
|
that option in the pam_krb5(5) man page.
|
|
|
|
Some configuration options may be put in the krb5.conf file used by your
|
|
Kerberos libraries (usually /etc/krb5.conf or /usr/local/etc/krb5.conf)
|
|
instead or in addition to the PAM configuration. See the man page for
|
|
more details.
|
|
|
|
The Kerberos library, via pam-krb5, will prompt the user to change their
|
|
password if their password is expired, but when using OpenSSH, this will
|
|
only work when ChallengeResponseAuthentication is enabled. Unless this
|
|
option is enabled, OpenSSH doesn't pass PAM messages to the user and can
|
|
only respond to a simple password prompt.
|
|
|
|
If you are using MIT Kerberos, be aware that users whose passwords are
|
|
expired will not be prompted to change their password unless the KDC
|
|
configuration for your realm in [realms] in krb5.conf contains a
|
|
master_kdc setting or, if using DNS SRV records, you have a DNS entry
|
|
for _kerberos-master as well as _kerberos.
|
|
|
|
DEBUGGING
|
|
|
|
The first step when debugging any problems with this module is to add
|
|
debug to the PAM options for the module (either in the PAM configuration
|
|
or in krb5.conf). This will significantly increase the logging from the
|
|
module and should provide a trace of exactly what failed and any
|
|
available error information.
|
|
|
|
Many Kerberos authentication problems are due to configuration issues in
|
|
krb5.conf. If pam-krb5 doesn't work, first check that kinit works on
|
|
the same system. That will test your basic Kerberos configuration. If
|
|
the system has a keytab file installed that's readable by the process
|
|
doing authentication via PAM, make sure that the keytab is current and
|
|
contains a key for host/<system> where <system> is the fully-qualified
|
|
hostname. pam-krb5 prevents KDC spoofing by checking the user's
|
|
credentials when possible, but this means that if a keytab is present it
|
|
must be correct or authentication will fail. You can check the keytab
|
|
with klist -k and kinit -k.
|
|
|
|
Be sure that all libraries and modules, including PAM modules, loaded by
|
|
a program use the same Kerberos libraries. Sometimes programs that use
|
|
PAM, such as current versions of OpenSSH, also link against Kerberos
|
|
directly. If your sshd is linked against one set of Kerberos libraries
|
|
and pam-krb5 is linked against a different set of Kerberos libraries,
|
|
this will often cause problems (such as segmentation faults, bus errors,
|
|
assertions, or other strange behavior). Similar issues apply to the
|
|
com_err library or any other library used by both modules and shared
|
|
libraries and by the application that loads them. If your OS ships
|
|
Kerberos libraries, it's usually best if possible to build all Kerberos
|
|
software on the system against those libraries.
|
|
|
|
IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
|
|
The normal sequence of actions taken for a user login is:
|
|
|
|
pam_authenticate
|
|
pam_setcred(PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED)
|
|
pam_open_session
|
|
pam_acct_mgmt
|
|
|
|
and then at logout:
|
|
|
|
pam_close_session
|
|
|
|
followed by closing the open PAM session. The corresponding pam_sm_*
|
|
functions in this module are called when an application calls those
|
|
public interface functions. Not all applications call all of those
|
|
functions, or in particularly that order, although pam_authenticate is
|
|
always first and has to be.
|
|
|
|
When pam_authenticate is called, pam-krb5 creates a temporary ticket
|
|
cache in /tmp and sets the PAM environment variable PAM_KRB5CCNAME to
|
|
point to it. This ticket cache will be automatically destroyed when the
|
|
PAM session is closed and is there only to pass the initial credentials
|
|
to the call to pam_setcred. The module would use a memory cache, but
|
|
memory caches will only work if the application preserves the PAM
|
|
environment between the calls to pam_authenticate and pam_setcred. Most
|
|
do, but OpenSSH notoriously does not and calls pam_authenticate in a
|
|
subprocess, so this method is used to pass the tickets to the
|
|
pam_setcred call in a different process.
|
|
|
|
pam_authenticate does a complete authentication, including checking the
|
|
resulting TGT by obtaining a service ticket for the local host if
|
|
possible, but this requires read access to the system keytab. If the
|
|
keytab doesn't exist, can't be read, or doesn't include the appropriate
|
|
credentials, the default is to accept the authentication. This can be
|
|
controlled by setting verify_ap_req_nofail to true in [libdefaults] in
|
|
/etc/krb5.conf. pam_authenticate also does a basic authorization check,
|
|
by default calling krb5_kuserok (which uses ~/.k5login if available and
|
|
falls back to checking that the principal corresponds to the account
|
|
name). This can be customized with several options documented in the
|
|
pam_krb5(5) man page.
|
|
|
|
pam-krb5 treats pam_open_session and pam_setcred(PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED) as
|
|
synonymous, as some applications call one and some call the other. Both
|
|
copy the initial credentials from the temporary cache into a permanent
|
|
cache for this session and set KRB5CCNAME in the environment. It will
|
|
remember when the credential cache has been established and then avoid
|
|
doing any duplicate work afterwards, since some applications call
|
|
pam_setcred or pam_open_session multiple times (most notably X.Org 7 and
|
|
earlier xdm, which also throws away the module settings the last time it
|
|
calls them).
|
|
|
|
pam_acct_mgmt finds the ticket cache, reads it in to obtain the
|
|
authenticated principal, and then does is another authorization check
|
|
against .k5login or the local account name as described above.
|
|
|
|
After the call to pam_setcred or pam_open_session, the ticket cache will
|
|
be destroyed whenever the calling application either destroys the PAM
|
|
environment or calls pam_close_session, which it should do on user
|
|
logout.
|
|
|
|
The normal sequence of events when refreshing a ticket cache (such as
|
|
inside a screensaver) is:
|
|
|
|
pam_authenticate
|
|
pam_setcred(PAM_REINITIALIZE_CRED)
|
|
pam_acct_mgmt
|
|
|
|
(PAM_REFRESH_CRED may be used instead.) Authentication proceeds as
|
|
above. At the pam_setcred stage, rather than creating a new ticket
|
|
cache, the module instead finds the current ticket cache (from the
|
|
KRB5CCNAME environment variable or the default ticket cache location
|
|
from the Kerberos library) and then reinitializes it with the
|
|
credentials from the temporary pam_authenticate ticket cache. When
|
|
refreshing a ticket cache, the application should not open a session.
|
|
Calling pam_acct_mgmt is optional; pam-krb5 doesn't do anything
|
|
different when it's called in this case.
|
|
|
|
If pam_authenticate apparently didn't succeed, or if an account was
|
|
configured to be ignored via ignore_root or minimum_uid, pam_setcred
|
|
(and therefore pam_open_session) and pam_acct_mgmt return PAM_IGNORE,
|
|
which tells the PAM library to proceed as if that module wasn't listed
|
|
in the PAM configuration at all. pam_authenticate, however, returns
|
|
failure in the ignored user case by default, since otherwise a
|
|
configuration using ignore_root with pam-krb5 as the only PAM module
|
|
would allow anyone to log in as root without a password. There doesn't
|
|
appear to be a case where returning PAM_IGNORE instead would improve the
|
|
module's behavior, but if you know of a case, please let me know.
|
|
|
|
By default, pam_authenticate intentionally does not follow the PAM
|
|
standard for handling expired accounts and instead returns failure from
|
|
pam_authenticate unless the Kerberos libraries are able to change the
|
|
account password during authentication. Too many applications either do
|
|
not call pam_acct_mgmt or ignore its exit status. The fully correct PAM
|
|
behavior (returning success from pam_authenticate and
|
|
PAM_NEW_AUTHTOK_REQD from pam_acct_mgmt) can be enabled with the
|
|
defer_pwchange option.
|
|
|
|
The defer_pwchange option is unfortunately somewhat tricky to implement.
|
|
In this case, the calling sequence is:
|
|
|
|
pam_authenticate
|
|
pam_acct_mgmt
|
|
pam_chauthtok
|
|
pam_setcred
|
|
pam_open_session
|
|
|
|
During the first pam_authenticate, we can't obtain credentials and
|
|
therefore a ticket cache since the password is expired. But
|
|
pam_authenticate isn't called again after pam_chauthtok, so
|
|
pam_chauthtok has to create a ticket cache. We however don't want it to
|
|
do this for the normal password change (passwd) case.
|
|
|
|
What we do is set a flag in our PAM data structure saying that we're
|
|
processing an expired password, and pam_chauthtok, if it sees that flag,
|
|
redoes the authentication with password prompting disabled after it
|
|
finishes changing the password.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, when handling password changes this way, pam_chauthtok
|
|
will always have to prompt the user for their current password again
|
|
even though they just typed it. This is because the saved
|
|
authentication tokens are cleared after pam_authenticate returns, for
|
|
security reasons. We could hack around this by saving the password in
|
|
our PAM data structure, but this would let the application gain access
|
|
to it (exactly what the clearing is intended to prevent) and breaks a
|
|
PAM library guarantee. We could also work around this by having
|
|
pam_authenticate get the kadmin/changepw authenticator in the expired
|
|
password case and store it for pam_chauthtok, but it doesn't seem worth
|
|
the hassle.

HISTORY AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
|
|
|
|
Originally written by Frank Cusack <fcusack@fcusack.com>, with the
|
|
following acknowledgement:
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Naomaru Itoi <itoi@eecs.umich.edu>, Curtis King
|
|
<curtis.king@cul.ca>, and Derrick Brashear <shadow@dementia.org>, all
|
|
of whom have written and made available Kerberos 4/5 modules.
|
|
Although no code in this module is directly from these author's
|
|
modules, (except the get_user_info() routine in support.c; derived
|
|
from whichever of these authors originally wrote the first module the
|
|
other 2 copied from), it was extremely helpful to look over their code
|
|
which aided in my design.
|
|
|
|
The module was then patched for the FreeBSD ports collection with
|
|
additional modifications by unknown maintainers and then was modified by
|
|
Joel Kociolek <joko@logidee.com> to be usable with Debian GNU/Linux.
|
|
|
|
It was packaged by Sam Hartman as the Kerberos v5 PAM module for Debian
|
|
and improved and modified by him and later by Russ Allbery to fix bugs
|
|
and add additional features. It was then adopted by Andres Salomon, who
|
|
added support for refreshing credentials.
|
|
|
|
The current distribution is maintained by Russ Allbery, who also added
|
|
support for reading configuration from krb5.conf, added many features
|
|
for compatibility with the Sourceforge module, commented and
|
|
standardized the formatting of the code, and overhauled the
|
|
documentation.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Douglas E. Engert for the initial implementation of PKINIT
|
|
support. I have since modified and reworked it extensively, so any bugs
|
|
or compilation problems are my fault.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Markus Moeller for lots of debugging and multiple patches and
|
|
suggestions for improved portability.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Booker Bense for the implementation of the alt_auth_map
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Sam Hartman for the FAST support implementation.
