[plug] PAM + SMB + PPP

List,

Not sure I understand this ...

http://sg.samba.org/samba/ftp/pam_smb/

It mentions in here that when compiled and installed I need to modify
the /etc/pam.d contents to show what 'programs' will use this. On my
target system there is a 'ppp' in this directory ...

#%PAM-1.0
auth		required	pam_nologin.so
auth		required	pam_pwd.so shadow nullok
account	required	pam_pwd.so
session	required	pam_pwd.so

Guessing heavily here, the first column is a process or action, all of
which are mandatory and use the third columns 'programs' to work.

Do I need to create something similar for pppd in pam.d? Or do I need to
"merge" this PAM into the pppd (2.3.11) source and recompile?

Thanks,
