Description-en: OCaml bindings for the PAM library (runtime)
OCamlPAM is a wrapper for the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM)
library. PAM provides a flexible mechanism for authenticating users
via administrator-defined policies. PAM has modules for
authenticating via Unix passwd files, Kerberos, LDAP, etc. Additional
modules for custom authentication mechanisms can be created and
deployed without recompiling existing services based on
PAM. Moreover, policies defining the authentication requirements can
be changed at runtime without restarting running services.
.
This package contains only the shared runtime stub library for
OCamlPAM.
