which krb5 PAM module on Solaris 8?

[Brian Davidson]

Why not use nsswitch for authorization?  I'm assuming it's available on 
Solaris since Sun developed it (I don't have any Solaris boxes at the 
moment).  Basically all password file lookups are redirected to LDAP 
via nss_ldap.  It seems to me that authentication is best left to PAM, 
while authorization is better handled by a hook into the system calls 
that are used for authorization (i.e. what nsswitch does).
