Damien Millerb8b8ecf2001-02-08 10:47:43 +1100[diff] [blame]28- Write a test program that calls stat() to search for EGD/PRNGd socket
Damien Millera8e06ce2003-11-21 23:48:55 +1100[diff] [blame]29 rather than use the (non-portable) "test -S".
Damien Millerb8b8ecf2001-02-08 10:47:43 +1100[diff] [blame]30
Damien Millera8ed44b2003-01-10 09:53:12 +1100[diff] [blame]31- More platforms for for setproctitle() emulation (testing needed)

Damien Miller0b8e9002003-05-18 21:44:07 +1000[diff] [blame]33- Improve PAM ChallengeResponseAuthentication
34 - Informational messages
Damien Millerdd97de72001-03-05 23:33:24 +1100[diff] [blame]35 - Use different PAM service name for kbdint vs regular auth (suggest from
36 Solar Designer)
37 - Ability to select which ChallengeResponseAuthentications may be used
38 and order to try them in e.g. "ChallengeResponseAuthentication skey, pam"

Damien Millerad833b32000-08-23 10:46:23 +1000[diff] [blame]40- Complete Tru64 SIA support
Damien Millerfdbcb5d2001-09-25 13:01:49 +1000[diff] [blame]41 - It looks like we could merge it into the password auth code to cut down
42 on diff size. Maybe PAM password auth too?
Ben Lindstrom4a1d9162000-11-21 10:45:31 +0000[diff] [blame]43

Ben Lindstrom4a1d9162000-11-21 10:45:31 +0000[diff] [blame]51Clean up configure/makefiles:
Tim Riceb89e6942001-10-29 18:50:39 -0800[diff] [blame]52- Clean up configure.ac - There are a few double #defined variables
Damien Millerdd97de72001-03-05 23:33:24 +1100[diff] [blame]53 left to do. HAVE_LOGIN is one of them. Consider NOT looking for
54 information in wtmpx or utmpx or any of that stuff if it's not detected
55 from the start

61 to allow people to (right/wrongfully) link against Bind directly.

Damien Millerc68d4332002-01-22 22:26:20 +1100[diff] [blame]63- Consider splitting configure.ac into seperate files which do logically
Damien Millera8e06ce2003-11-21 23:48:55 +1100[diff] [blame]64 similar tests. E.g move all the type detection stuff into one file,
Damien Millerc68d4332002-01-22 22:26:20 +1100[diff] [blame]65 entropy related stuff into another.
