mod_http_oauth2: Revert role selector, going to try something else Back out f2c7bb3af600 Allowing only a single role to be encoded into the grant takes away the possibility of having multiple roles in the grant, one of which is selected when issuing an access token. It also takes away the ability to have zero roles granted, which could be useful e.g. when you only need OIDC scopes.

Introduction
============

This module makes Prosody authenticate users against PAM (Linux
Pluggable Authentication Modules)

Dependencies
============

The module depends on [lua-pam](https://github.com/devurandom/lua-pam)
and [LuaPosix](https://github.com/luaposix/luaposix).

Setup
=====

Create a `/etc/pam.d/xmpp` with something like this:

    auth    [success=1 default=ignore]  pam_unix.so obscure sha512 nodelay
    auth    requisite           pam_deny.so
    auth    required            pam_permit.so

And switch authentication provider in the Prosody config:

    authentication = "pam"
