NAME
pam_echo -- Echo PAM module SYNOPSIS
[service-name] module-type control-flag pam_echo [arguments] DESCRIPTION
The echo service module for PAM displays its arguments to the user, separated by spaces, using the current conversation function. If the % character occurs anywhere in the arguments to pam_echo, it is assumed to introduce one of the following escape sequences: %H The name of the host on which the client runs (PAM_RHOST). %s The current service name (PAM_SERVICE). %t The name of the controlling tty (PAM_TTY). %U The applicant's user name (PAM_RUSER). %u The target account's user name (PAM_USER). Any other two-character sequence beginning with % expands to the character following the % character. SEE ALSO

NAME
pam_group -- Group PAM module SYNOPSIS
[service-name] function-class control-flag pam_group [options] DESCRIPTION
The Group PAM module supports the account management function class. In terms of the function-class parameter, this is the ``account'' class. The Group account management module permits or denies users based on their membership to a particular group (or groups) specified with the group option. If no groups are specified the default group (``wheel'') will be used. The following options may be passed to this account management module: deny Reverse the meaning of the test, i.e., reject the applicant if and only if he or she is a member of the specified group. This can be useful to exclude certain groups of users from certain services. fail_safe If the specified group does not exist, or has no members, act as if it does exist and the applicant is a member. group=groupname Specify the name of the group to check. This can be a comma-separated list (i.e. ``group=admin,wheel''). root_only Skip this module entirely if the target account is not the superuser account. ruser Check the membership of the applicant (PAM_RUSER), rather than the target account (PAM_USER) SEE ALSO
