CVS PAM Authentication on HP UX Server

Hi Rajesh,

According to the cederqvist documentation for both CVS 1.12.13 CVS
1.12.11, the PAM support is 'experimental' (see page 26):

"Note that PAM is an experimental feature in cvs and feedback is
encouraged. Please send a mail to one of the cvs mailing lists
(info-***@nongnu.org or bug-***@nongnu.org) if you use the cvs PAM
support."

In addition you need to check that the 'build' of cvs 1.12.11 you are
using was 'configured/compiled' using './configure --enable-pam'.

I'm currently based in Sydney, and the company I work for produce and
maintain 'CVS Suite (CVSNT)' for HPUX (both PA-Risc and Itanium), and we
include PAM support in that. Our product is listed in the HP
AllianceONE catalog under 'CVS Suite Server', if you do a Partner
solution search of 'cvs' you'll find us easily. I've not personally
used PAM on HPUX, but we have the facilities here in Sydney to test and
fix any related problem.

If you'd consider upgrading (fully backwards compatible with CVS 1.x)
then please give me a call or email.

Hi Team,
We have already installed CVS server on some of our HP UX
machines. Recently all these servers have been integrated
with Active Directory for LDAP authentication.
Could you please let me know how I can reconfigure the
existing CVS on these servers to support PAM authentication
without affecting any of the existing data?
CVS version is 1.12.11
