Ingres PAM Integration
Home

The Ingres community (Ronald Jeninga of independIT Integrative Technologies GmbH) has contributed source code changes to make Ingres running on various flavors of UNIX/LINUX platforms PAM aware. PAM stands for Pluggable Authentication Modules. This PAM Framework was invented by Sun Microsystems. PAM provides applications great flexibility to use different security services without re-compilation of the application itself. That is, it provides a single API for the application. A system administrator can then reconfigure PAM to access shadow passwords or any of various supported security mechanisms without having to change or recompile the application.
