pam application problem

mango_1 — Wed, 23 Apr 2003 18:44:51 GMT

hello all! I've currently made a pam application that calls the pam api's. The problem is I want to redirect the prompts (such as those asking for a password) in a separate window. Is this possible?

thanks!

Hi, It should be possible. PAM APIs do not come in the way of prompt redirection. You may code your application to pop up a window with the prompt and then have PAM APIs process it.

Hope this helps. -R
