NAME
pam_authtok_store - password management module
SYNOPSIS
pam_authtok_store.so.1
DESCRIPTION
pam_authtok_store provides functionality to the PAM password
management stack. It provides one function:
pam_sm_chauthtok().
When invoked with flags set to PAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK, this
module updates the authentication token for the user speci-
fied by PAM_USER.
The authentication token PAM_OLDAUTHTOK can be used to
authenticate the user against repositories that need updat-
ing (NIS, LDAP). After successful updates, the new authenti-
cation token stored in PAM_AUTHTOK is the user's valid pass-
word.
This module honors the PAM_REPOSITORY item, which, if set,
specifies which repository is to be updated. If
PAM_REPOSITORY is unset, it follows the nsswitch.conf(4).
The following option can be passed to the module:
debug syslog(3C) debugging information at the
LOG_DEBUG level
server_policy If the account authority for the user, as
specified by PAM_USER, is a server, do not
encrypt the authentication token before
updating.
ERRORS
PAM_SUCCESS Successfully obtains authentication
token
PAM_SYSTEM_ERR Fails to get username, service name,
old password or new password, user
name null or empty, or password
null.

pam_unix_session(5)
NOTES
The interfaces in libpam(3LIB) are MT-Safe only if each
thread within the multi-threaded application uses its own
PAM handle.
The pam_unix(5) module is no longer supported. Similar func-
tionality is provided by pam_authtok_check(5),
pam_authtok_get(5), pam_authtok_store(5), pam_dhkeys(5),
pam_passwd_auth(5), pam_unix_account(5), pam_unix_auth(5),
and pam_unix_session(5).
If the PAM_REPOSITORY item_type is set and a service module
does not recognize the type, the service module does not
process any information, and returns PAM_IGNORE. If the
PAM_REPOSITORY item_type is not set, a service module per-
forms its default action.
