Hi List=0A=
=0A=
I need to run a linux binary on freebsd 7.3 that expects to link to libpam.=
so.0. I can't seem to find how to compile libpam (linux-pam) on freebsd, or=
 locate some kind of compatible binary I can run on freebsd with linux bina=
ry compatibility enabled in the ports tree either. =0A=
=0A=
Would anyone know if there is a freebsd port of linux libpam, or a source p=
ackage I could easily compile for freebsd 7.3 and upward ?=0A=
=0A=
Informational: The binary I'm trying to run is "wmic" , a windows managemen=
t instrumentation client, for monitoring windows systems via wmi. There doe=
s not seem to be a wmi client available for FreeBSD, hence me resorting to =
a binary compiled for linux :-(=0A=
=0A=
some information on the binary:=0A=
=0A=
---=0A=
wmic: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Lin=
ux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped=0A=
---=0A=
=0A=
running it:=0A=
=0A=
---=0A=
./wmic: error while loading shared libraries: libpam.so.0: cannot open shar=
ed object file: No such file or directory=0A=
---=0A=
=0A=
Any other suggestions that might help resolving this quandary would be welc=
ome :-)=0A=
=0A=
Thanks in Advance,=0A=
