PAM, NSS, and a new blocking=yes setting
...ing=yes will probably work great with NSS. With PAM I'm not so sure. Mostly because the worker never exits, it just does one PAM auth after another. I think usually PAM is used only once in a process, so there might be memory leaks and maybe other bugs.. Then again, maybe not. I'll add some auth_worker_max_requests setting which can be set to 1 if this is a problem. Also for blocking=no case I added code to send KILL signal to PAM child processes which haven't replied for 2 minutes. With blocking=yes this condition can't be checked currently. http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2007-February/007639....
