NAME

       pam_chatty - A PAM test module that generates PAM info and error messages.

SYNOPSIS

       pam_chatty.so [...]

DESCRIPTION

       The pam_chatty module makes it easy to replicate the behaviour of PAM modules that
       generate a lot of output, in order to ensure that PAM clients react as expected.

IMPORTANT

       pam_chatty is a test tool. It should be considered completely insecure and never used
       outside test environments! As you’ll see when reading description of the options, many of
       them don’t make any sense in the real world and were added just to make tests possible.

       The pam_chatty module generates a lot of PAM info and error output, when its
       authentication method is called, and then returns success.

OPTIONS

num_lines=NUMBER - the number of lines of messages to output, for each one of the
           enabled types of messages selected.

       •   error - whether to output error level messages.

       •   info - whether to output info level messages.

MODULE TYPES PROVIDED

       Only the auth module type is supported.

EXAMPLE

           auth            required        pam_chatty.so num_lines=16 info error
