Yes, my fault, I'm aware of that but never got around to test with Solaris. It 
need to be aligned.
From man mlock on Linux:

"Under Linux, mlock() and munlock() automatically round addr down to the 
nearest page boundary.  However, POSIX.1-2001 allows an implementation to 
require that addr is page aligned, so portable applications should ensure 
this."

Were are storing in-memory creds for firefox NTLM SSO (ntlm_auth) independent 
from "winbind offline logon" when the pam_auth caller requests 
WBFLAG_PAM_CACHED_LOGIN. Conceptually that is ok but for consistency we 
should tie this again to the global offline logon setting.

On my list for 3.0.25.

Cheers,
Guenther
