mod_auth_pam

[adler at stephenadler.com (Stephen Adler)]

I tried the system-auth, but the httpd mod_auth_pam could not find the 
appropriate pam modules. :(

[root at qmt0 pam.d]# more httpd
#%PAM-1.0

auth       required     /lib/security/pam_unix.so
account    required     /lib/security/pam_unix.so

#auth       include      system-auth
#account    include      system-auth

the commented out lines were what I tried...
