pam_setcred -- modify / delete user credentials for an authentication service LIBRARY
Pluggable Authentication Module Library (libpam, -lpam) SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h> #include <security/pam_appl.h> int pam_setcred(pam_handle_t *pamh, int flags); DESCRIPTION
The pam_setcred function manages the application's credentials. The flags argument is the binary or of zero or more of the following values: PAM_SILENT Do not emit any messages. PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED Establish the credentials of the target user. PAM_DELETE_CRED Revoke all established credentials. PAM_REINITIALIZE_CRED Fully reinitialise credentials. PAM_REFRESH_CRED Refresh credentials. The latter four are mutually exclusive. If any other bits are set, pam_setcred will return PAM_SYMBOL_ERR. RETURN VALUES
The pam_setcred function returns one of the following values: [PAM_ABORT] General failure. [PAM_BUF_ERR] Memory buffer error. [PAM_CONV_ERR] Conversation failure. [PAM_CRED_ERR] Failed to set user credentials. [PAM_CRED_EXPIRED] User credentials have expired. [PAM_CRED_UNAVAIL] Failed to retrieve user credentials. [PAM_PERM_DENIED] Permission denied. [PAM_SERVICE_ERR] Error in service module. [PAM_SYMBOL_ERR] Invalid symbol. [PAM_SYSTEM_ERR] System error. [PAM_USER_UNKNOWN] Unknown user. SEE ALSO
