+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+The
+\fBpam_acct_mgmt\fR
+function is used to determine if the user\*(Aqs account is valid\&. It checks for authentication token and account expiration and verifies access restrictions\&. It is typically called after the user has been authenticated\&.
+.PP
+The
+\fIpamh\fR
+argument is an authentication handle obtained by a prior call to pam_start()\&. The flags argument is the binary or of zero or more of the following values:
+.PP
+PAM_SILENT
+.RS 4
+Do not emit any messages\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_DISALLOW_NULL_AUTHTOK
+.RS 4
+The PAM module service should return PAM_NEW_AUTHTOK_REQD if the user has a null authentication token\&.
+.RE
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.PP
+PAM_ACCT_EXPIRED
+.RS 4
+User account has expired\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_AUTH_ERR
+.RS 4
+Authentication failure\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_NEW_AUTHTOK_REQD
+.RS 4
+The user account is valid but their authentication token is
+\fIexpired\fR\&. The correct response to this return\-value is to require that the user satisfies the
+\fBpam_chauthtok()\fR
+function before obtaining service\&. It may not be possible for some applications to do this\&. In such cases, the user should be denied access until such time as they can update their password\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_PERM_DENIED
+.RS 4
+Permission denied\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_SUCCESS
+.RS 4
+The authentication token was successfully updated\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_USER_UNKNOWN
+.RS 4
+User unknown to password service\&.
