Hi all,

someone use checkpassword as passdb ?

with passdb = checkpassword /usr/bin/checkpw (checkpw from cr.yp.to)
with good, bad or missing password, it's an authentication success ...

I've wrote a script who emulate checkpw with an exiting with exit(0),
exit(1), exit(2) or exit(111). Same issue ...

Thanks for your experience with it.

Cyril
