+ * pwdauth.c - program to verify a given username/password pair.
+ *
+ * Run it with username in argv[1] (may be omitted - default is the
+ * current user), and send it the password over a pipe on stdin.
+ * Exit status: 0 - correct password, 1 - wrong password, >1 - other
+ * errors. For use with shadow passwords, this program should be
+ * installed setuid root.
+ *
+ * This can be used, for example, by xlock - you don't have to install
+ * this large and complex (== possibly insecure) program setuid root,
+ * just modify it to run this simple program to do the authentication.
+ *
+ * Recent versions (xlockmore-3.9) are cleaner, and drop privileges as
+ * soon as possible after getting the user's encrypted password.
+ * Using this program probably doesn't make it more secure, and has one
+ * disadvantage: since we don't get the encrypted user's password at
+ * startup (but at the time the user is authenticated), it is not clear
+ * how we should handle errors (like getpwnam() returning NULL).
+ * - fail the authentication? Problem: no way to unlock (other than kill
+ * the process from somewhere else) if the NIS server stops responding.
+ * - succeed and unlock? Problem: it's too easy to unlock by unplugging
+ * the box from the network and waiting until NIS times out...
