It is not intended to be run directly + from the command line and logs a security violation if done so. + + + + The purpose of the helper is to enable tighter confinement of + login and password changing services. The helper is thus called only + when SELinux is enabled on the system. + + + + The interface of the helper - command line options, and input/output + data format are internal to the pam_unix + module and it should not be called directly from applications. + + + + + SEE ALSO + + + pam_unix8 + + + + + + AUTHOR + + Written by Tomas Mraz and other various people. + + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
