Details

New pam_ccreds packages were added to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
distribution.

PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a system security library that
allows system administrators to set authentication policies without having
to recompile programs that handle authentication.

The updated pam_ccreds module provides support for caching authentication
credentials for cases when the primary source of authentication credentials
is unavailable. The module must be properly configured in PAM configuration
files to be utilized for authentication.

Users requiring the updated caching authentication credentials capabilities
should install this newly released package, which adds this enhancement.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
