I'm looking to install pam_mysql to work with OpenPAM and was able to use the patch posted by sem123 to compile. My problem is when it does, I end up with a pam_mysql.o instead of a pam_mysql.so. Also, I'm not sure where to put these files. I'm sure this sounds like a stupid question, but I'm new to the *nix world. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

I'm not sure if the patch changes anything, but the unpatched version drops a pam_mysql.so in the top level directory (ie, not in dynamic)
Just install it from a FreeBSD ports system:
cd /usr/ports/security/pam-mysql
make install clean
The freebsd port doesn't work with myql 4.1
