The helper is thus called only when SELinux is enabled on the system\&. +.PP +The interface of the helper \- command line options, and input/output data format are internal to the +\fIpam_unix\fR +module and it should not be called directly from applications\&. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.PP +\fBpam_unix\fR(8) +.SH "AUTHOR" +.PP +Written by Tomas Mraz and other various people\&. -- cgit v1.2.3
