I've made a patch to improve kannel's pam authentication:
1. It doesn't disable regular authentication, pam is only tried after checking regular sendsms-user's. 2. It allows for many pam configurations with different settings to coexist. 3. Logging reflects the pam configuration _and_ user (this required some additions to urltrans.c).
Having pam authentication allows kannel to authenticate using any pam- compatible module (passwd, ldap, radius, etc).
Another nice side effect is that new users could be added and passwords changed without needing to restart the service.
For details and the patch check here: http://www.blogalex.com/archives/206 I'm working on the userguide patch as well. Regards, -- Alejandro Guerrieri aguerri...@kannel.org
