Tekmor

Tekmor was both a primitve Greek goddess and a word indicating a

sure sign, or token of some high and solemn kind"

As such, Tekmor serves as a simple abstraction in golang for passing authentication to PAM and determining whether or not it was successful.

CGO and Requirements

Since we're using msteinert's pam library, it has dependencies on GCC as well as the development libraries for PAM.

For Ubuntu systems, this would mean the following: apt-get install -y build-essential libpam0g-dev

I have had little to no success on MAC as of yet, but these core dependencies will be necessary before a go get github.com/msteinert/pam will be successful.
