Error description

• The UNIX Installation Guide for Synergy 7.1 states the
  following:
  
  cmsynergy   auth  required
  /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pam_unix.so.1
  cmsynergy   account   required
  /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pam_unix.so.1
  
  The following or similar should be added (source:
  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21325284):
  
  The pam_unix.so.1 module is no longer supported under
  Solaris 10
  
  The pam_unix module has been removed and replaced by a set of
  service modules of equivalent or greater functionality. So, the
  following pam.conf settings should be used:
  
  cmsynergy      auth     requisite   pam_authtok_get.so.1
  cmsynergy      auth     required    pam_dhkeys.so.1
  cmsynergy      auth     required    pam_unix_cred.so.1
  cmsynergy      auth     required    pam_unix_auth.so.1
  cmsynergy      account  required    pam_unix_account.so.1
