.Sh DESCRIPTION

|
|
|
These functions are OpenPAM extensions to the PAM API.
|
|
|
|
|
Those named
|

|
|
|
.Fn pam_*
|
|
|
|
|
are, in the author's opinion, logical and necessary extensions to the
|
|
|
|
|
standard API, while those named
|
|
|
|
|
.Fn openpam_*
|
|
|
|
|
are either simple convenience functions, or functions intimately tied
|
|
|
|
|
to OpenPAM implementation details, and therefore not well suited to
|
|
|
|
|
standardization.
