NAME

       cvm-pwfile - POSIX-style passwd file module

SYNOPSIS

       cvm-pwfile

CREDENTIALS

       Pass phrase

DESCRIPTION

       This  module  loads  entries  from  an alternate password file using the fgetpwent(3) API,
       which requires the file to be formatted the same as the UNIX /etc/passwd file.   No  group
       name lookups are done.

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

       CVM_PWFILE_PATH
              the path to the passwd file containing the credential information.

       CVM_PWFILE_PWCMP (optional)
              The  password  comparison  module  to  use.  If it is not set, the default password
              comparison mode is plain-text.  To use UNIX crypt style passwords, like /etc/passwd
              does, set this to "crypt".
