Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll(3pm)

NAME

       Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll - reject all passphrases

SYNOPSIS

	       use Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll;

	       $ppr = Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll->new;

	       $ppr = Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll
		       ->from_crypt("*");

	       $ppr = Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll
		       ->from_rfc2307("{CRYPT}*");

	       if($ppr->match($passphrase)) { ...

	       $passwd = $ppr->as_crypt;
	       $userPassword = $ppr->as_rfc2307;

DESCRIPTION

       An object of this class is a passphrase recogniser that accepts any passphrase whatsoever.  This is a subclass of Authen::Passphrase, and
       this document assumes that the reader is familiar with the documentation for that class.

       This type of passphrase recogniser is obviously of no use at all in controlling access to any resource.	Its use is to permit a resource to
       be completely inaccessible in a system that expects some type of passphrase access control.

CONSTRUCTORS

       Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll->new
	   Returns a reject-all passphrase recogniser object.  The same object is returned from each call.

       Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll->from_crypt(PASSWD)
	   Returns a reject-all passphrase recogniser object.  The same object is returned from each call.  The argument, a crypt string, must be
	   between one and twelve (inclusive) characters long and must not start with "$".

       Authen::Passphrase::RejectAll->from_rfc2307(USERPASSWORD)
	   Generates a new reject-all passphrase recogniser object from an RFC 2307 string.  The string must consist of "{CRYPT}" (case
	   insensitive) followed by an acceptable crypt string.

METHODS

       $ppr->match(PASSPHRASE)
       $ppr->as_crypt
       $ppr->as_rfc2307
	   These methods are part of the standard Authen::Passphrase interface.  The "match" method always returns false.

NAME

       Authen::Passphrase::Clear - cleartext passphrases

SYNOPSIS

	       use Authen::Passphrase::Clear;

	       $ppr = Authen::Passphrase::Clear->new("passphrase");

	       if($ppr->match($passphrase)) { ...

	       $passphrase = $ppr->passphrase;

	       $userPassword = $ppr->as_rfc2307;

DESCRIPTION

       An object of this class is a passphrase recogniser that accepts some particular passphrase which it knows.  This is a subclass of
       Authen::Passphrase, and this document assumes that the reader is familiar with the documentation for that class.

       Warning: Storing a passphrase in cleartext, as this class does, is a very bad idea.  It means that anyone who sees the passphrase file
       immediately knows all the passphrases.  Do not use this unless you really know what you're doing.

CONSTRUCTORS

       Authen::Passphrase::Clear->new(PASSPHRASE)
	   Returns a passphrase recogniser object that stores the specified passphrase in cleartext and accepts only that passphrase.

       Authen::Passphrase::Clear->from_rfc2307(USERPASSWORD)
	   Generates a cleartext passphrase recogniser from the supplied RFC2307 encoding.  The string must consist of "{CLEARTEXT}" (case
	   insensitive) followed by the passphrase.

METHODS

       $ppr->match(PASSPHRASE)
       $ppr->passphrase
       $ppr->as_rfc2307
	   These methods are part of the standard Authen::Passphrase interface.  The "passphrase" method trivially works.
