rlm_unix

[Mark Jones]

Was there any particular reason to remove the ability to specify what passwd 
and shadow file to use with the unix module?  As the way the passwd module 
is processed  I cannot get the same functionality that I currently have 
under 1.1.x.

Unless I misunderstand. the unix module can me used in the authenticate 
section where the passwd module can only be used in the authorize section.
