Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package
libapache2-mod-authnz-external, which is part of the web section, and
maintained by Hai Zaar <haizaar at haizaar.com>. 

This package contains : authenticate Apache against external
authentication services.

Mod_Auth_External can be used to quickly construct secure, reliable
authentication systems.  It can also be mis-used to quickly open gaping
holes in your security.  Read the documentation, and use with extreme
caution.

Notably, this module can be used to securely authenticate against PAM
(without exposing /etc/shadow file), using, for example, pwauth
authenticator.

This Package includes the mod-athnz-external Module for Apache Version 2.x
