Patrikov postoj k PAM je známy a nevidel som nejakú extra argumentáciu, ktorá by ho vyvracala.
Já zase neviděl žádnou aspoň trochu přesvědčivou argumentaci, která by vysvětlovala, proč PAM nepoužít.
n/openssh-3.7.1p2-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to openssh-3.7.1p2. This fixes security problems with PAM authentication. It also includes several code cleanups from Solar Designer. Slackware does not use PAM and is not vulnerable to any of the fixed problems. Please indulge me for this brief aside (as requests for PAM are on the rise): If you see a security problem reported which depends on PAM, you can be glad you run Slackware. I think a better name for PAM might be SCAM, for Swiss Cheese Authentication Modules, and have never felt that the small amount of convenience it provides is worth the great loss of system security. We miss out on half a dozen security problems a year by not using PAM, but you can always install it yourself if you feel that you're missing out on the fun. (No, don't do that) OK, I'm done ranting here.I suppose this is still a: (* Security fix *)
