RE: is it possible to re-compile sshd to support "real-user" login in terms of public key authentication


Hi Brian

Thank you for the suggestion especially for LSA. Maybe I do not express
myself clearly. What I mean is to change the source code and then do
re-compile.

You'd have to ask them.  They probably install a LSA module.  Cygwin has
this capability as well in the unreleased CVS version.

I don't understand the logic here.  If certain functionality is not
implemented how is simply recompiling going to change anything?
