title: LDAP auth for MongoDB with Pam
body: <p>I am working to get MongoDB (using the Percona distro) to authenticate using Pam.  I can see lots of info about using SASL, but the company standard is pam and I'm not able to change that.  I see a project from 2011 in GitHub (pam_mongodb) that says it works, but given the age I'm hoping for a better solution.  I have RHEL 7.5, Mongo 3.6.5, and and have cyrus-sasl 2.1.26 installed, but not configured.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions?  I am completely new to LDAP and trying to fumble my way through, so pointers to web pages are also helpful.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks...</p>
