Certainly happy to have a crack at something that might be used, as a base for such a section, however, Shadow is currently already in BLFS, albeit in the Security section, which leads to the question of whether some packages could appear in two, or more, sections of the BLFS book. Furthermore, I have a question about the wording of the BLFS Shadow section, in that it lists Linux-PAM-1.3.1 or CrackLib-2.9.7 in the Required subsection, From my perspective, neither is actually "required" for Shadow, so they should be listed as Recommended or, perhaps, Optional Thoughts ?
