.SH "NAME"
pam_stress \- The stress\-testing PAM module
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBpam_stress\&.so\fR\ 'u
\fBpam_stress\&.so\fR [debug] [no_warn] [use_first_pass] [try_first_pass] [rootok] [expired] [fail_1] [fail_2] [prelim] [required]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The pam_stress PAM module is mainly intended to give the impression of failing as a fully functioning module might\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
\fBdebug\fR
.RS 4
Put lots of information in syslog\&. *NOTE* this option writes passwords to syslog, so don\*(Aqt use anything sensitive when testing\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBno_warn\fR
.RS 4
Do not give warnings about things (otherwise warnings are issued via the conversation function)
.RE
.PP
\fBuse_first_pass\fR
.RS 4
Do not prompt for a password, for pam_sm_authentication function just use item PAM_AUTHTOK\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBtry_first_pass\fR
.RS 4
Do not prompt for a password unless there has been no previous authentication token (item PAM_AUTHTOK is NULL)
.RE
.PP
\fBrootok\fR
.RS 4
This is intended for the pam_sm_chauthtok function and it instructs this function to permit root to change the user\*(Aqs password without entering the old password\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBexpired\fR
.RS 4
An argument intended for the account and chauthtok module parts\&. It instructs the module to act as if the user\*(Aqs password has expired
.RE
.PP
\fBfail_1\fR
.RS 4
This instructs the module to make its first function fail\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBfail_2\fR
.RS 4
This instructs the module to make its second function (if there is one) fail\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBprelim\fR
.RS 4
For pam_sm_chauthtok, means fail on PAM_PRELIM_CHECK\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBrequired\fR
.RS 4
For pam_sm_chauthtok, means fail if the user hasn\*(Aqt already been authenticated by this module\&. (See stress_new_pwd data string in the NOTES\&.)
.RE
.SH "MODULE TYPES PROVIDED"
.PP
All module types (\fBauth\fR,
\fBaccount\fR,
\fBpassword\fR
and
\fBsession\fR) are provided\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.PP
PAM_BUF_ERR
.RS 4
Memory buffer error\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_PERM_DENIED
.RS 4
Permission denied\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_AUTH_ERR
.RS 4
Access to the system was denied\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_CONV_ERR
.RS 4
Conversation failure\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_SUCCESS
.RS 4
The function passes all checks\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_USER_UNKNOWN
.RS 4
The user is not known to the system\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_CRED_ERR
.RS 4
Failure involving user credentials\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_NEW_AUTHTOK_REQD
.RS 4
Authentication token is no longer valid; new one required\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_SESSION_ERR
.RS 4
Session failure\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_TRY_AGAIN
.RS 4
Failed preliminary check by service\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_AUTHTOK_LOCK_BUSY
.RS 4
Authentication token lock busy\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_AUTHTOK_ERR
.RS 4
Authentication token manipulation error\&.
.RE
.PP
PAM_SYSTEM_ERR
.RS 4
System error\&.
.RE
.SH "NOTES"
.PP
This module uses the stress_new_pwd data string which tells pam_sm_chauthtok that pam_sm_acct_mgmt says we need a new password\&. The only possible value for this data string is \*(Aqyes\*(Aq\&.
