pam_ksu

PAM_KSU(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						PAM_KSU(8)

NAME

     pam_ksu -- Kerberos 5 SU PAM module

SYNOPSIS

     [service-name] module-type control-flag pam_ksu [options]

DESCRIPTION

     The Kerberos 5 SU authentication service module for PAM, pam_ksu for only one PAM category: authentication.  In terms of the module-type
     parameter, this is the ``auth'' feature.  The module is specifically designed to be used with the su(1) utility.

   Kerberos 5 SU Authentication Module
     The Kerberos 5 SU authentication component provides functions to verify the identity of a user (pam_sm_authenticate()), and determine whether
     or not the user is authorized to obtain the privileges of the target account.  If the target account is ``root'', then the Kerberos 5 princi-
     pal used for authentication and authorization will be the ``root'' instance of the current user, e.g. ``user/root@REAL.M''.  Otherwise, the
     principal will simply be the current user's default principal, e.g. ``user@REAL.M''.

     The user is prompted for a password if necessary.	Authorization is performed by comparing the Kerberos 5 principal with those listed in the
     .k5login file in the target account's home directory (e.g. /root/.k5login for root).

     The following options may be passed to the authentication module:

     debug	     syslog(3) debugging information at LOG_DEBUG level.

     use_first_pass  If the authentication module is not the first in the stack, and a previous module obtained the user's password, that password
		     is used to authenticate the user.	If this fails, the authentication module returns failure without prompting the user for a
		     password.	This option has no effect if the authentication module is the first in the stack, or if no previous modules
		     obtained the user's password.

     try_first_pass  This option is similar to the use_first_pass option, except that if the previously obtained password fails, the user is
		     prompted for another password.
