Python backend binding to PAM, NSS or pppd

Hey all!

Before I start hacking away, I'm looking for a Python backend binding for 
libpam or libnss, or a python binding for the pppd plugin mechanism.

I'm trying to set up an SQL authentication scheme for virtual user accounts 
used for mail and PPTP-VPN-access, and I'd love to do the authentication bit 
in Python. And, yes, I know about pam-mysql and nss-mysql, but both projects 
are old and unmaintained, and I use Oracle as backend DB anyway.

If anybody knows of any project which has implemented a part of this, I'd love 
to hear about the effort...
