pam_smb_passwd - SMB password management module SYNOPSIS
pam_smb_passwd.so.1 DESCRIPTION
The pam_smb_passwd module enhances the PAM password management stack. This functionality supports the changing or adding of SMB passwords for local Solaris users. The Solaris CIFS server uses SMB passwords to authenticate connected Solaris users. This module includes the pam_sm_chauthtok(3PAM) function. The pam_sm_chauthtok() function accepts the following flags: PAM_PRELIM_CHECK Always returns PAM_IGNORE. PAM_SILENT Suppresses messages. PAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK Updates or creates a new CIFS local LM/NTLM hash for the user that is specified in PAM_USER by using the authentication information found in PAM_AUTHTOK. The LM hash is only created if the smbd/lmauth_level property value of the smb/server service is set to 3 or less. PAM_IGNORE is returned if the user is not in the local /etc/passwd repository. The following options can be passed to the pam_smb_passwd module: debug Produces syslog(3C) debugging information at the LOG_AUTH or LOG_DEBUG level. nowarn Suppresses warning messages. FILES
/var/smb/smbpasswd Stores SMB passwords for Solaris users. ERRORS
Upon successful completion of pam_sm_chauthtok(), PAM_SUCCESS is returned. The following error codes are returned upon error: PAM_AUTHTOK_ERR Authentication token manipulation error PAM_AUTHTOK_LOCK_BUSY SMB password file is locked PAM_PERM_DENIED Permissions are insufficient for accessing the SMB password file PAM_SYSTEM_ERR System error PAM_USER_UNKNOWN User is unknown ATTRIBUTES
See the attributes(5) man page for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Committed | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |MT Level |MT-Safe with exceptions | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
smbd(1M), syslog(3C), libpam(3LIB), pam(3PAM), pam_chauthtok(3PAM), pam_sm(3PAM), pam_sm_chauthtok(3PAM), pam.conf(4), attributes(5) NOTES
The interfaces in libpam(3LIB) are MT-Safe only if each thread within the multi-threaded application uses its own PAM handle. The pam_smb_passwd.so.1 module should be stacked following all password qualification modules in the PAM password stack. SunOS 5.11 29 Apr 2008 pam_smb_passwd(5)
