password must necessarily have an empty pwd->pw_passwd. Also add a check
that prevents users from setting a blank password unless the nullok option
was specified. Root is still allowed to give anyone a blank password.
to maintain, and had security issues which would have required a major
rewrite to address anyway.
This implementation currently starts a separate agent for each session
instead of connecting each new session to the agent started by the first
one. While this would be a Good Thing (and the old pam_ssh(8) tried to
do it), it's hard to get right. I'll revisit this issue when I've had a
chance to test some modifications to ssh-agent(1).
pam_wheel(8) module was written to work in spite of a broken libpam, and
has grown organically since its inception, which is reflected in both its
functionality and implementation. Rather than clean up pam_wheel(8) and
break backward compatibility, I've chosen to reimplement it under a new,
more generic name.

initialize the context. This way, a failure to initialize the context is
not fatal unless we actually have work to do - because if we don't, we
return PAM_SUCCESS without even trying to initialize the context.
pam_krb5 to consolidate the copyright texts. The semi-official
pam_krb5 module has been distributed with this new license text ever
since, but I'm just now getting around to updating the text here.
time_t. Deal with the possibility that time_t != int32_t. This boils
down to this sort of thing:
- time(&ut.ut_time);
+ ut.ut_time = time(NULL);
and similar for ctime(3) etc. I've kept it minimal for the stuff
that may need to be portable (or 3rd party code), but used Matt's time32
stuff for cases where that isn't as much of a concern.

PAM module state (created in pam_sm_authenticate and referenced later
in pam_sm_setcred and pam_sm_acct_mgmt). However, the krb5_ccache
structure shares some data members with the krb5_context structure
that was used in its creation. Since a new krb5_context is created
and destroyed at each PAM entry point, this inevitably caused the
krb5_ccache structure to reference free'd memory.
Now instead of storing a pointer to the krb5_ccache structure,
we store the name of the cache (e.g. `MEMORY:0x123CACHE') in
pam_sm_authenticate, and resolve the name in the other entry points.
This bug was uncovered by phkmalloc's free'd memory scrubbing.

e.g.
Unknown error: -1765328378
we get
Client not found in Kerberos database
Another way to accomplish this would have been to leave
`error_message' alone, but to explicitly load the Kerberos com_err
error tables. However, I don't really like the idea of a PAM module
dorking with global tables.

group membership requirement if the group has no explicit members listed
in /etc/group. By default, this group is the wheel group; setting this
flag restores the default BSD behavior from 4.x.
