This revision improves the robustness and security for pam within Fedora Core 4, rectifying previously noted issues and establishing library connections.
This update fixes a regression of pam_userdb against FC3 pam and links to shared audit library as audit-libs-devel is now fixed.

Summary

PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a system security tool that

allows system administrators to set authentication policy without

having to recompile programs that handle authentication.

This update fixes a regression of pam_userdb against FC3 pam

and links to shared audit library as audit-libs-devel is now

fixed.
