pam authentification does not need root rights #585

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
on documentation page http://gitblit.com/setup_authentication.html, section 
"PAM Authentication" specified

" Linux/Unix/MacOSX machine and the user that Gitblit runs-as must have root 
permissions."

but root permissions does not need.

for example 
cat /etc/pam.d/gitblit 
# PAM configuration for the gitblit service

# Standard Un*x authentication.
@include common-auth

EOF
are enough for work bitblit with PAM without root rights.
In this example gitblit configuration for PAM must be

realm.authenticationProviders = pam
realm.pam.serviceName = gitblit
