| Summary : An Apache module for authentication using /etc/shadow
|
Description :
When performing this task one encounters one fundamental
difficulty: The /etc/shadow file is supposed to be
read/writable only by root. However, the web server is
supposed to run under a non-root user, such as \"nobody\".
mod_auth_shadow addresses this difficulty by opening a pipe
to an suid root program, validate, which does the actual
validation. When there is a failure, validate writes an
error message to the system log, and waits three seconds
before exiting.
