    We're using RSA's ACE/Server clients to authenticate users internally
    on hosts. The problem is that the users are entered on the ACE/Server
    as "foo.bar"-style names, while the local system accounts (mix of
    Solaris 8 and 9) use "fbar"-style logins.

    The ACE agent uses a PAM module to talk to the ACE/Server.

    What I need to figure out is if there's anyway to allow a user to "ssh
    foo.bar@sysname.com", have PAM use foo.bar as the auth username, but
    then drop the user into their fbar environment after authentication.

    I know the Samba package can handle PAM user mapping, but that doesn't
    do me any good.

    Any ideas?
