Hi -

It shares the same distribution. The difference is that you INSTALL
PLUGIN with auth_pam_compat.so and specify IDENTIFIED WITH
auth_pam_compat for CREATE USER commands.

Yes, the client plugin is needed for the full plugin.

The compat plugin should help you then - it uses then standard
Oracle-shipped client plugin, available by default.
