 18.PAM Authentication  18. Testing with ICU enabled:
 ===================  
   
 In order to use PAM Authentication you have to compile Pegasus  
 with one extra enviroment flags:  
   
         PEGASUS_PAM_AUTHENTICATION=1  
   
 You can also set the PEGASUS_ALWAYS_USE_PAM=1 flag to disable  
 Pegasus password authentication using a flag text-file (recommended).  
   
 After compiling (refer to section 17 for details), follow these two  
 important steps:  
   
  a).  Copy the rpm/wbem file in-to /etc/pam.d directory.  
       This notifies PAM what kind of libraries to use when authenticating  
       Pegasus.  
  b).  Modify CIMserver configuration options:  
   
         usePAMAuthentication=true  
         enableAuthentication=true  
   
       And if you want to allow 'root' (*not recommended*)  
         enableRemotePrivilegedUserAccess=true  
   
       using the 'cimconfig' operation, such as:  
   
         cimconfig -p -s usePAMAuthentication=true  
   
 The user is authenticated using HTTP Basic method, thererfore it is  
 strongly suggested you use SSL connection instead of normal HTTP connection.  
 Refer to section 16 for more details on creating and using SSL keys.
