want to authenticate from a passwd file that isn't /etc/passwd?



Hi All,

I'm trying to set up an application (vsftpd) to authenticate from a
file in the same format as /etc/passwd (with crypt format passwords),
but it cannot be /etc/passwd as the 18000 users do not have accounts
on the system.

Because this is a move from an existing system, I have no choice about
the password format.

Can I do this with any of the standard pam modules?

Cheers,

Anna Langley
