NAME

     pam_deny -- Deny PAM module

SYNOPSIS

     [service-name] module-type control-flag pam_deny [options]

DESCRIPTION

     The deny authentication service module for PAM provides functionality for all the PAM categories: authentication, account management, session
     management and password management.  In terms of the module-type parameter, these are the ``auth'', ``account'', ``session'', and
     ``password'' features.

     The Deny module will universally deny all requests.  It is primarily of use during testing, and to ``null-out'' unwanted functionality.

     The following options may be passed to the module:

     debug    syslog(3) debugging information at LOG_DEBUG level.

     no_warn  suppress warning messages to the user.  These messages include reasons why the user's authentication attempt was declined.
