I've looked at the PAM stuff superficially over the years, and would be very interested in doing something with the session modules to do things like automatically creating missing home directories with appropriate links to automounted directories. I haven't done much with this on FreeBSD yet since I need pam_ldap and nss_ldap support which only seems to be available in the 5.x tree.
