OPTIONS
debug

nosetuid
Per default pam_make.so will execute make with the effective user ID of the calling process. Specifying this option means make is run

PAM_SYSTEM_ERR
A system error occured or the make command failed.
PAM_IGNORE
pam_setcred was called, which does not execute the make command.
EXAMPLES
Add the following line to /etc/pam.d/passwd to rebuild the NIS database after each local password change:
passwd optional pam_make.so /var/yp
This will execute the command:
make -C /var/yp
