= Rpam 

* https://github.com/canweriotnow/rpam-ruby19

== DESCRIPTION:

   This extension provides PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) integration.
   The library provides a stable API for applications to defer to for
   authentication tasks.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

* Not reported 

== SYNOPSIS:

In a nutshell (using the 'rpam' PAM service):

  require 'rpam'

  if Rpam.auth("user","password") == true
	puts "Authenticate Successful"
  else
    puts "Authenticate Failure"
  end

Or, to use a different PAM service:

  if Rpam.auth("user", "password", :service => 'my_foo') == true

This also supports compatibility with the original 'rpam':

  include Rpam
  if authpam("user","password") == true

== REQUIREMENTS:


* pam-devel 
* ruby-devel

== INSTALL:

* gem install rpam-ruby19 (might need sudo privileges)

Or, you can do it the hard way (without Rubygems):

* tar xzf rpam-*.tar.gz
* cd rpam-*/ext
* ruby extconf.rb
* make
* make install (might need sudo privileges)
