.Dd September 12, 2014 .Dt PAMTEST 1 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm pamtest .Nd PAM policy tester .Sh SYNOPSIS .Nm .Op Fl dkMPsv .Op Fl H Ar rhost .Op Fl h Ar host .Op Fl T Ar timeout .Op Fl t Ar tty .Op Fl U Ar ruser .Op Fl u Ar user .Ar service .Op Ar command ... .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm utility offers an easy way to test PAM modules and policies from the command line.
p The .Nm utility loads the PAM policy specified by the .Ar service argument, starts a PAM transaction by calling .Xr pam_start 3 , then executes the primitives specified by the remaining command-line arguments. Finally, it ends the transaction by calling .Xr pam_end 3 .
p The commands are: l -tag -width 6n t Cm authenticate , Cm auth Call .Xr pam_authenticate 3 . t Cm acct_mgmt , Cm account Call .Xr pam_acct_mgmt 3 . t Cm chauthtok , Cm change Call .Xr pam_chauthtok 3 with the .Dv PAM_CHANGE_EXPIRED_AUTHTOK flag set. t Cm forcechauthtok , Cm forcechange Call .Xr pam_chauthtok 3 with no flags set. t Cm setcred , Cm establish_cred Call .Xr pam_setcred 3 with the .Dv PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED flag set. t Cm open_session , Cm open Call .Xr pam_open_session 3 . t Cm close_session , Cm close Call .Xr pam_close_session 3 . t Cm unsetcred , Cm delete_cred Call .Xr pam_setcred 3 with the .Dv PAM_DELETE_CRED flag set. t Cm listenv , Cm env Call .Xr pam_getenvlist 3 and print the contents of the list it returns. .El
p The following options are available: l -tag -width Fl t Fl d Enables debug messages within the OpenPAM library. See .Xr openpam_log 3 for details. t Fl H Ar rhost Specify the name of the fictitious remote host. The default is to use the name of the local host. t Fl h Ar host Specify the name of the local host. The default is to use the result of calling .Xr gethostname 3 . t Fl k Keep going even if one of the commands fails. t Fl M Disable path, ownership and permission checks on module files. t Fl P Disable service name validation and path, ownership and permission checks on policy files. t Fl s Set the .Dv PAM_SILENT flag when calling the .Xr pam_authenticate 3 , .Xr pam_acct_mgmt 3 , .Xr pam_chauthok 3 , .Xr pam_setcred 3 , .Xr pam_open_session 3 and .Xr pam_close_session 3 primitives. t Fl T Ar timeout Set the conversation timeout (in seconds) for .Xr openpam_ttyconv 3 . t Fl t Ar tty Specify the name of the tty. The default is to use the result of calling .Xr ttyname 3 . t Fl U Ar ruser Specify the name of the supplicant (remote user). t Fl u Ar user Specify the name of the principal (local user). t Fl v Enables debug messages from .Nm itself. .El .Sh EXAMPLES Simulate a typical PAM transaction using the .Dq system policy: d -literal -offset indent pamtest -v system auth account change setcred open close unsetcred .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr openpam 3 , .Xr pam 3 , .Xr pam.conf 5 .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm utility and this manual page were written by .An Dag-Erling Sm\(/orgrav Aq des@des.no . .Sh BUGS The .Nm utility does not (yet) support setting and getting individual PAM items or environment variables.
p The .Nm utility does not afford the user complete control over the flags passed to the .Xr pam_authenticate 3 , .Xr pam_acct_mgmt 3 , .Xr pam_chauthok 3 , .Xr pam_setcred 3 , .Xr pam_open_session 3 and .Xr pam_close_session 3 primitives.
