It has been significantly rewritten since -.51 was released (due mostly to the efforts of Cristian Gafton), and -now takes more options and correctly updates vanilla UNIX/shadow/md5 -passwords. - -[Please read the source and make a note of all the warnings there, as -the license suggests -- use at your own risk.] - -So far as I am concerned this module is now pretty stable. If you find -any bugs, PLEASE tell me! <morgan@parc.power.net> - -Options recognized by this module are as follows: - - debug - log more debugging info - audit - a little more extreme than debug - use_first_pass - don't prompt the user for passwords - take them from PAM_ items instead - try_first_pass - don't prompt the user for the passwords - unless PAM_(OLD)AUTHTOK is unset - use_authtok - like try_first_pass, but *fail* if the new - PAM_AUTHTOK has not been previously set. - (intended for stacking password modules only) - not_set_pass - don't set the PAM_ items with the passwords - used by this module. - shadow - try to maintian a shadow based system. - unix - when changing passwords, they are placed - in the /etc/passwd file - md5 - when a user changes their password next, - encrypt it with the md5 algorithm. - bigcrypt - when a user changes their password next, - excrypt it with the DEC C2-algorithm(0). - nodelay - used to prevent failed authentication - resulting in a delay of about 1 second. - -There is some support for building a shadow file on-the-fly from an -/etc/passwd file.
