The guest service module for PAM allows guest logins.
If successful, the
pam_guest
module sets the PAM environment variable
GUEST
to the login name.
The application can check this variable using
pam_getenv(3)
to differentiate guest logins from normal logins.
The following options may be passed to the
pam_guest
module:
|
| guests=list
|
Comma-separated list of guest account names.
The default is
"guest".
A typical value for
ftpd(8)
would be
"anonymous,ftp".
|
| nopass
|
Omits the password prompt if the target account is on the list of
guest accounts.
|
| pass_as_ruser
|
| |
The password typed in by the user is exported as the
PAM_RUSER
item.
This is useful for applications like
ftpd(8)
where guest users are encouraged to use their email address as
password.
|
| pass_is_user
|
Requires the guest user to type in the guest account name as password.
