PAM (pluggable authentication method)

Its how the Qube3 does its php authentication against the servers
accounts. You will probably need to recompile php to handle pam
authentication, take a look at
http://www.math.ohio-state.edu/~ccunning/pam_auth.html
Or be brave and go straight into the archive:
ftp://ftp.netexpress.net/pub/pam/


Hope that helps!
