.Dd May 26, 2003 .Dt PAM_GUEST 8 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm pam_guest .Nd Guest PAM module .Sh SYNOPSIS .Op Ar service-name .Ar module-type .Ar control-flag
a pam_guest .Op Ar arguments .Sh DESCRIPTION The guest service module for PAM allows guest logins. If successful, the .Nm module sets the PAM environment variable .Ev GUEST to the login name. The application can check this variable using .Xr pam_getenv 3 to differentiate guest logins from normal logins.
p The following options may be passed to the .Nm module: l -tag -width ".Cm pass_as_ruser" t Cm guests Ns = Ns Ar list Comma-separated list of guest account names. The default is .Dq Li guest . A typical value for .Xr ftpd 8 would be .Dq Li anonymous,ftp . t Cm nopass Omits the password prompt if the target account is on the list of guest accounts. t Cm pass_as_ruser The password typed in by the user is exported as the .Dv PAM_RUSER item. This is useful for applications like .Xr ftpd 8 where guest users are encouraged to use their email address as password. t Cm pass_is_user Requires the guest user to type in the guest account name as password. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr pam_get_item 3 , .Xr pam_getenv 3 , .Xr pam.conf 5 , .Xr pam 8 .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm module and this manual page were developed for the .Fx Project by ThinkSec AS and NAI Labs, the Security Research Division of Network Associates, Inc. under DARPA/SPAWAR contract N66001-01-C-8035
