I have to do some work on pam_mysql (Bachelor project).
I don't have really the time for it, but I've to do it anyway...

So, I'm lacking of features to implement.
If you could share your TODO list ;)

Until now, I fixed some minor bugs in the sources.
I've also done session logging (open/close session).

As discussed on the pam-list, It would not be possible to pass the
SHELL/HOME 
to use from a PAM module to the application...

I'll also check out the pam_mysql SF page for todos/bugs..


Hoping to hear from you soonly,
thanks,
sincerly,
