+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+The
+\fBpam_sm_acct_mgmt\fR
+function is the service module\*(Aqs implementation of the
+\fBpam_acct_mgmt\fR(3)
+interface\&.
+.PP
+This function performs the task of establishing whether the user is permitted to gain access at this time\&. It should be understood that the user has previously been validated by an authentication module\&. This function checks for other things\&. Such things might be: the time of day or the date, the terminal line, remote hostname, etc\&. This function may also determine things like the expiration on passwords, and respond that the user change it before continuing\&.
+.PP
+Valid flags, which may be logically OR\*(Aqd with
+\fIPAM_SILENT\fR, are:
+.PP
+PAM_SILENT
+.RS 4
+Do not emit any messages\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_DISALLOW_NULL_AUTHTOK
+.RS 4
+Return
+\fBPAM_AUTH_ERR\fR
+if the database of authentication tokens for this authentication mechanism has a
+\fINULL\fR
+entry for the user\&.
+.RE
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.PP
+PAM_ACCT_EXPIRED
+.RS 4
+User account has expired\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_AUTH_ERR
+.RS 4
+Authentication failure\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_NEW_AUTHTOK_REQD
+.RS 4
+The user\*(Aqs authentication token has expired\&. Before calling this function again the application will arrange for a new one to be given\&. This will likely result in a call to
+\fBpam_sm_chauthtok()\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_PERM_DENIED
+.RS 4
+Permission denied\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_SUCCESS
+.RS 4
+The authentication token was successfully updated\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+PAM_USER_UNKNOWN
+.RS 4
+User unknown to password service\&.
