Summary: PAM's pam_unix.so does not load libcrypt.so itself

Description robertw 1999-11-12 14:00:00 UTC 
Because the pam_unix.so does not load libcrypt.so, it forces applications using that PAM to load libcrypt.so. 

It should load libcrypt.so itself, instead of assuming that the main program links with libcrypt.so.

Fix: 

Have mod_unix.so load libcrypt.so itself.
How-To-Repeat: Any program that uses PAM that does not link with libcrypt.so (for example Courier-IMAP)
