RE: Re: Error when using libssh in a PAM module with OpenSSH

I don't. As described in my first message, I am using libssh from within a PAM module
that happens to be also used for ssh authentication. There is no linking involved on my
part and I suspect the libssh from openssh is being 'injected' by LD_PRELOAD or some
other mechanism (when sshd is executed at the start of an ssh session) and I can't do
anything about it. I realize this is an arcance use case.

Now, there is similar functionality in openssh's libssh but it is largely undocumented, the
naming is obscure and I cannot even link to it properly so I had to resort to 'dlopen' etc. 
(Haven't tried for that long, though). Therefore I'd really like to use libssh but I have no idea
how to achieve this short of shared object redirection via fiddling around with ELF internals.
