Requirements for Using PAM
The following are required to use PAM in Ingres:
• You must have root access to edit configuration files.
• Your machine must have PAM installed.
You can download PAM from the vendor site for your operating system. For example, for Solaris see http://sun.com/software/solaris/pam.
You may need to build and install PAM if no binaries are available for your operating system. If your machine does not have a robust C compiler, you may need to download and build gcc from http://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html. As a prerequisite to gcc, you may also need to download gmake from http://gnu.org/software/make.
