Thread-topic: OpenSSH and pam_ncp_auth.so
I have seen in the archives that several people have tried to use this module 
with OpenSSH. Now that the LTSP project has moved to LDM with SSH tunnels in 
Edubuntu I wondered if the issue with ssh requiring a local account to already 
exist could be revisited? Even though I know that the opinion has been that the 
module is 'broken' because some people believe that PAM should be used purely 
for authentication this limitation is making it VERY hard for those of us in 
the Education IT field.

Would it be possible to have a fix for this that could be applied if one wished?




Petr, I have copied you on this email for reference to the pam_ncp_auth modules 
maintainer.




Thanks!
