Try the following:

	main(argc, argv)
		int argc;
		char **argv;
	{
		struct pr_passwd  *pr;

		set_auth_parameters(argc, argv);
		pr = getprpwnam("parker");
	}

set_auth_parameters() must be called before any of the other routines in
identity.o in libprot.a, because they all check for it having been called.
