The new feature is a 'localifdown' option. Previously, you would need to be using Linux-PAM and the extended pam.conf syntax to ignore PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL return values. Now, with 'localifdown', the module returns PAM_IGNORE instead of PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL, which works for all pam stacks.
Nice. Will this be the case for all timeout situations? Or only if the local interface is actually down? I was actually experimenting with the extended syntax last week when I found the timeout problem.
All timeouts. Is there a different behavior you would like? -frank
