NAME

       pam-script - a PAM module that can invoke scripts within the PAM stack.

SYNOPSIS

       pam-script.so [onerr=(success|fail)][dir=/some/path/]

DESCRIPTION

       pam-script  allows  you  to  execute  scripts during authorization, passwd changes, and on
       session opening or closing.

       Such scripts can perform necessary tasks or influence the outcome of the PAM  stack.   For
       example, if the following entry was included in pam.conf
         sshd    auth required  pam_script

       then if the script, pam_script_auth, exits with a non-zero value this would cause the user
       to be denied SSH access to the machine.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.

       onerr=(success|fail)
              the default behavior if the module can not find or execute the script.  The default
              is to fail if the option is not given.

       dir=/some/path/
              where  to  find  the  pam-scripts to invoke for each of the various module-types as
              described below.  The default is dir=/usr/share/libpam-script if not given.

              List of scripts

       pam_script_auth
              Executed under auth which handles the authentication stage of establishing the user
              via some challenge-response (i.e. username/password)

       pam_script_acct
              invoked under account module-type for non-authentication based account management.

       pam_script_passwd
              invoked under passwd for changing the password tokens.

       pam_script_ses_open
              invoked when a session is first opened.

       pam_script_ses_close
              run after a session is first closed.

              All  the scripts will be passed several environment variables: PAM_USER, PAM_RUSER,
              PAM_RHOST, PAM_SERVICE, PAM_AUTHTOK, PAM_TTY, and PAM_TYPE referring to the module-
              type.   The  pam_script.so  arguments in the pam.conf will be passed on the command
              line, which can be used to modify the script behavior.

FILES
