I have a pretty basic server load with sendmail and roundcube and I'm thinking the two password methods available to me are pam or chpasswd. From what I gather, pam is the more secure but I can't find any instructions.
All that is in the readme file is ...
Requires PECL's PAM exitension to be installed (http://pecl.php.net/package/PAM)
... which is not enough information. I went to the above site and downloaded - no instructions there either.
Pam already runs on the system.
Any suggestions?
No response.
Apparently there are not enough instructions and too few people know how to set this up.
Check out my how-to post for chpasswd method.
I got that to work.
the ugly chpaswd method use the python script, and some server does not use the required python or does not use python in environment...
so pam must be a valid solution due some hosting provides a pam sincronization.
for use pam, must use the php-auth-pam sources and made setuid the module
