Ah, i was trying pam-l...@redhat.com without success. I even tried to contact the administrators, but nothing as silence. ..So i was waiting until some day i see one of the names mentioned. |If you could submit the module as PR on the GitHub Linux PAM project |[0], it would be considered. | |I know, that would require getting a GitHub account. | |[0] https://github.com/linux-pam/linux-pam Yes, ach, no. It is just a trivial thing, and not even needed on the omnipresent systemd Linux; i was just writing it because someone here on (systemd-free) CRUX Linux was carrying along some PAM-module daemon written in a language noone has the interpreter for by default, that did nothing but managing a session counter ... rundird it was, written in zig. (It fooled me to believe that PAM could gracefully handle sessions, i did not think about it myself; until a "daemonized" / reparented to init shell script was living in a directory that should have been gone, and then i rewrote the module to the minimum implementation that it is.) |No matter how far down the wrong road you've gone, turn back. | Turkish proverb |[You'll know whether the road is wrong if you carefully listen to your |conscience.] Ah! and oh! on my evil subconsciousness.
