      Overtaken by project nss_pgsql with its own PAM module
      The nss_pgsql project,

      http://freshmeat.net/projects/nss_pgsql/?topic_id=136

      Has effectively overtaken development of this PAM module in their project. They have released an NSS plugin and a PAM module. They are separately downloadable via their Sourceforge location.

      I just wanted to let other visitors know there is a secure, under-development PAM module to accomplish Postgres-backed authentication.

      root'; select 'crypt_passwd' as password where '1

      Unfortunately, the author says it's 'obsolete' software...
