+A while back when I was playing with an alternate version of an application which 
+required authentification, I added the application name to some pam-related file, and it 
+worked.
+I forget the details.  I just did something parallel to what other some applications did.
+That seems to be what you're doing ?
+I'm far from being an expert.
+Hope that helps.
