You can want it... But - XOOPS haven't in core "authentication abstraction layer", thus you have to
- wait implementation
- use "authentication hack" (seach forum) and write own auth-mech

It seems like a LDAP Authentication.
I just want the XOOPS use Linux server default authentication method.
Use /etc/passwd only...

Xoops 2.0.9.x (or earlier) does not support that style of authentication natively.

Using the Authentication Hack, you'd have to roll your own authentication mechanism. In fact, if you have sample PHP code that can check credentials against /etc/passwd, I'd like to see it, as my google searches came up empty.
