  Description     : OCaml bindings for the PAM library

OCamlPAM is a wrapper for the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM)
library. PAM provides a flexible mechanism for authenticating users
via administrator-defined policies. PAM has modules for authenticating
via Unix passwd files, Kerberos, LDAP, etc. Additional modules for
custom authentication mechanisms can be created and deployed without
recompiling existing services based on PAM. Moreover, policies
defining the authentication requirements can be changed at runtime
without restarting running services.
