Announcing JPAM

JPAM is a Java-PAM bridge.  PAM, or Pluggable Authentication Modules, is a standard security architecture used on Unix, Linux and Mac OS X systems.

JPAM permits the use of PAM authentication facilities by Java applications running on those platforms.

These facilities include:

  • account
  • auth
  • password
  • session

JPAM has its own proprietary API via the PAM class but also supports JAAS with a LoginModule implementation.

Binaries are available for:

  • Linux 32 bit i386
  • Linux 64 bit amd64
  • Mac OS X ppc
