модуль фильтра PAM (PAM filter module)

Имя (Name)

pam_filter - PAM filter module


Синопсис (Synopsis)

pam_filter.so [debug] [new_term] [non_term] run1|run2 filter [...]


Описание (Description)

This module is intended to be a platform for providing access to all of the input/output that passes between the user and the application. It is only suitable for tty-based and (stdin/stdout) applications.

To function this module requires filters to be installed on the system. The single filter provided with the module simply transposes upper and lower case letters in the input and output streams. (This can be very annoying and is not kind to termcap based editors).

Each component of the module has the potential to invoke the desired filter. The filter is always execv(2) with the privilege of the calling application and not that of the user. For this reason it cannot usually be killed by the user without closing their session.


Параметры (Options)

debug
           Print debug information.

new_term The default action of the filter is to set the PAM_TTY item to indicate the terminal that the user is using to connect to the application. This argument indicates that the filter should set PAM_TTY to the filtered pseudo-terminal.

non_term don't try to set the PAM_TTY item.

runX In order that the module can invoke a filter it should know when to invoke it. This argument is required to tell the filter when to do this.

Permitted values for X are 1 and 2. These indicate the precise time that the filter is to be run. To understand this concept it will be useful to have read the pam(3) manual page. Basically, for each management group there are up to two ways of calling the module's functions. In the case of the authentication and session components there are actually two separate functions. For the case of authentication, these functions are pam_authenticate(3) and pam_setcred(3), here run1 means run the filter from the pam_authenticate function and run2 means run the filter from pam_setcred. In the case of the session modules, run1 implies that the filter is invoked at the pam_open_session(3) stage, and run2 for pam_close_session(3).

For the case of the account component. Either run1 or run2 may be used.

For the case of the password component, run1 is used to indicate that the filter is run on the first occasion of pam_chauthtok(3) (the PAM_PRELIM_CHECK phase) and run2 is used to indicate that the filter is run on the second occasion (the PAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK phase).

filter The full pathname of the filter to be run and any command line arguments that the filter might expect.


Предоставляемые типы модулей (Module types provided)

All module types (auth, account, password and session) are provided.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

PAM_SUCCESS The new filter was set successfully.

PAM_ABORT Critical error, immediate abort.


Примеры (Examples)

Add the following line to /etc/pam.d/login to see how to
       configure login to transpose upper and lower case letters once
       the user has logged in:
