/etc/passwd does not contain passwords on most systems, and even if
it did, they would be encrypted.
Use PAM, you will find instructions on the internet on how to set the
pam side of it (just look for exim PAM authentication and things like
that). In my conf I have:
login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = LOGIN
server_prompts = "Username:: : Password::"
server_condition=${if and {\
{!eq{$1}{}}\
{!eq{$2}{}}\
{pam{$1:${sg{$2}{:}{::}}}}\
}\
{yes}{no}}
server_set_id = $1
plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_prompts = :
server_condition=${if and {\
{!eq{$2}{}}\
{!eq{$3}{}}\
{pam{$2:${sg{$3}{:}{::}}}}\
}\
{yes}{no}}
server_set_id = $2
Now, why is it that questions like these that have been covered
hundreds of times that always receive attention??
