The openpam_nullconv
function is a null
conversation function suitable for applications that want to use PAM but
don't support interactive dialog with the user. Such applications should set
PAM_AUTHTOK
to whatever authentication token they've
obtained on their own before calling
pam_authenticate(3) and / or
pam_chauthtok(3), and their PAM
configuration should specify the use_first_pass
option for all modules that require access to the authentication token, to
make sure they use PAM_AUTHTOK
rather than try to
query the user.
The openpam_nullconv
function returns one
of the following values:
PAM_CONV_ERR
]openpam_ttyconv(3), pam(3), pam_authenticate(3), pam_chauthtok(3), pam_prompt(3), pam_set_item(3), pam_strerror(3), pam_vprompt(3)
The openpam_nullconv
function is an
OpenPAM extension.
The openpam_nullconv
function and this
manual page were developed for the FreeBSD Project
by ThinkSec AS and Network Associates Laboratories, the Security Research
Division of Network Associates, Inc. under DARPA/SPAWAR contract
N66001-01-C-8035 (“CBOSS”), as part of the DARPA CHATS
research program.
