NAME
       pamusb-check - simulates pam_usb authentication

SYNOPSIS
       Usage: pamusb-check [--help] [--debug] [--config=path] [--service=name] [--dump]
       [--quiet] <username>

DESCRIPTION
       pamusb-check can simulate authentication through the pam_usb engine.  It is useful for both testing purposes (to check the pam_usb configu-
       ration without having to try with a real program), but also for scripting. pamusb-check's exit code is 0 if the authentication was success-
       ful, 1 otherwise.  It is used by pamusb-agent to check the device.

EXAMPLES
       $ pamusb-check scox

       o  Authentication request for user "scox" (pamusb-check)

       o  Device "creative" is connected (good).

       o  Access granted.

       $ pamusb-check --service=su scox

       o  Authentication request for user "scox" (su)

       o  Device "creative" is connected (good).

       o  Access granted.

       $ pamusb-check --dump scox
