.Dt PAM_UNIX 8
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm pam_unix
|
|
.Nd UNIX PAM module
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Op Ar service-name
|
|
.Ar module-type
|
|
.Ar control-flag
|
|
.Pa pam_unix
|
|
.Op Ar options
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Ux
|
|
authentication service module for PAM,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
provides functionality for two PAM categories:
|
|
authentication
|
|
and account management.
|
|
In terms of the
|
|
.Ar module-type
|
|
parameter, they are the
|
|
.Dq Li auth
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq Li account
|
|
features.
|
|
It also provides a null function for session management.
|
|
.Ss Ux Ss Authentication Module
|
|
The
|
|
.Ux
|
|
authentication component
|
|
provides functions to verify the identity of a user
|
|
.Pq Fn pam_sm_authenticate ,
|
|
which obtains the relevant
|
|
.Xr passwd 5
|
|
entry.
|
|
It prompts the user for a password
|
|
and verifies that this is correct with
|
|
.Xr crypt 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options may be passed to the authentication module:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Cm use_first_pass"
|
|
.It Cm debug
|
|
.Xr syslog 3
|
|
debugging information at
|
|
.Dv LOG_DEBUG
|
|
level.
|
|
.It Cm use_first_pass
|
|
If the authentication module
|
|
is not the first in the stack,
|
|
and a previous module
|
|
obtained the user's password,
|
|
that password is used
|
|
to authenticate the user.
|
|
If this fails,
|
|
the authentication module returns failure
|
|
without prompting the user for a password.
|
|
This option has no effect
|
|
if the authentication module
|
|
is the first in the stack,
|
|
or if no previous modules
|
|
obtained the user's password.
|
|
.It Cm try_first_pass
|
|
This option is similar to the
|
|
.Cm use_first_pass
|
|
option,
|
|
except that if the previously obtained password fails,
|
|
the user is prompted for another password.
|
|
.It Cm auth_as_self
|
|
This option will require the user
|
|
to authenticate himself as the user
|
|
given by
|
|
.Xr getlogin 2 ,
|
|
not as the account they are attempting to access.
|
|
This is primarily for services like
|
|
.Xr su 1 ,
|
|
where the user's ability to retype
|
|
their own password
|
|
might be deemed sufficient.
|
|
.It Cm nullok
|
|
If the password database
|
|
has no password
|
|
for the entity being authenticated,
|
|
then this option
|
|
will forgo password prompting,
|
|
and silently allow authentication to succeed.
|
|
.It Cm local_pass
|
|
Use only the local password database,
|
|
even if NIS is in use.
|
|
This will cause an authentication failure
|
|
if the system is configured
|
|
to only use NIS.
|
|
.It Cm nis_pass
|
|
Use only the NIS password database.
|
|
This will cause an authentication failure
|
|
if the system is not configured
|
|
to use NIS.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ss Ux Ss Account Management Module
|
|
The
|
|
.Ux
|
|
account management component
|
|
provides a function to perform account management,
|
|
.Fn pam_sm_acct_mgmt .
|
|
The function verifies
|
|
that the authenticated user
|
|
is allowed to login to the local user account
|
|
by checking the password expiry date.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options may be passed to the management module:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Cm use_first_pass"
|
|
.It Cm debug
|
|
.Xr syslog 3
|
|
debugging information at
|
|
.Dv LOG_DEBUG
|
|
level.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ss Ux Ss Password Management Module
|
|
The
|
|
.Ux
|
|
password management component
|
|
provides a function to perform account management,
|
|
.Fn pam_sm_chauthtok .
|
|
The function changes
|
|
the user's password.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options may be passed to the password module:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Cm use_first_pass"
|
|
.It Cm debug
|
|
.Xr syslog 3
|
|
debugging information at
|
|
.Dv LOG_DEBUG
|
|
level.
|
|
.It Cm no_warn
|
|
suppress warning messages to the user.
|
|
These messages include
|
|
reasons why the user's
|
|
authentication attempt was declined.
|
|
.It Cm local_pass
|
|
forces the password module
|
|
to change a local password
|
|
in favour of a NIS one.
|
|
.It Cm nis_pass
|
|
forces the password module
|
|
to change a NIS password
|
|
in favour of a local one.
