+\fBint\ \fBpam_putenv\fR\fR\fB(\fR\fBpam_handle_t\ *\fR\fB\fIpamh\fR\fR\fB, \fR\fBconst\ char\ *\fR\fB\fIname_value\fR\fR\fB);\fR
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+The
+\fBpam_putenv\fR
+function is used to add or change the value of PAM environment variables as associated with the
+\fIpamh\fR
+handle.
+.PP
+The
+\fIpamh\fR
+argument is an authentication handle obtained by a prior call to pam_start(). The
+\fIname_value\fR
+argument is a single NUL terminated string of one of the following forms:
+.TP
+NAME=value of variable
+In this case the environment variable of the given NAME is set to the indicated value:
+\fIvalue of variable\fR. If this variable is already known, it is overwritten. Otherwise it is added to the PAM environment.
+.TP
+NAME=
+This function sets the variable to an empty value. It is listed separately to indicate that this is the correct way to achieve such a setting.
+.TP
+NAME
+Without an '=' the pam_putenv() function will delete the corresponding variable from the PAM environment.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.TP
+PAM_PERM_DENIED
+Argument
+\fIname_value\fR
+given is a NULL pointer.
+.TP
+PAM_BAD_ITEM
+Variable requested (for deletion) is not currently set.
+.TP
+PAM_ABORT
+The
+\fIpamh\fR
+handle is corrupt.
+.TP
+PAM_BUF_ERR
+Memory buffer error.
+.TP
+PAM_SUCCESS
+The environment variable was successfully updated.
