Standards, Environments, and Macros           pam_unix_account(5)



NAME
     pam_unix_account - PAM account management module for UNIX

SYNOPSIS
     pam_unix_account.so.1

DESCRIPTION
     pam_unix_account module implements pam_sm_acct_mgmt(), which
     provides  functionality to the PAM account management stack.
     The module provides functions to validate  that  the  user's
     account  is  not locked or expired and that the user's pass-
     word does not need  to  be  changed.  The  module  retrieves
     account   information   from  the  configured  databases  in
     nsswitch.conf(4).

     The following options can be passed to the module:

     debug           syslog(3C)  debugging  information  at   the
                     LOG_DEBUG level



     nowarn          Turn off warning messages



     server_policy   If the account authority for  the  user,  as
                     specified  by  PAM_USER, is a server, do not
                     apply the Unix policy from the passwd  entry
                     in the name service switch.



ERRORS
     The following values are returned:

     PAM_UNIX_ACCOUNT        User account has expired



     PAM_AUTHTOK_EXPIRED     Password  expired  and   no   longer
                             usable



     PAM_BUF_ERR             Memory buffer error



     PAM_IGNORE              Ignore module, not participating  in
                             result
