[Spacewalk-list] NIS authentication support?

[Jeff Moody]

I don't know of a native NIS option, but it does support PAM authentication.

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Network_Satellite/5.4/html/Installation_Guide/s1-maintenance-pam-auth.html

So if you can leverage PAM to authenticate users, then Spacewalk can leverage PAM to authenticate against NIS.

(I only use PAM to auth vs. LDAP. YMMV)

Is there support to use NIS as authentication system for Spacewalk?
