* PAM-manpage-sectionSam Hartman2024-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | Patch to put the PAM manpage in section 7 (general topics) instead of 8 (system administration commands) Authors: Steve Langasek <vorlon@debian.org> Upstream status: maybe provide a backwards-compatibility link first? Gbp-Pq: Name PAM-manpage-section

| * man: clarify PAM_DATA_SILENT in pam_set_data.3Luca Boccassi2023-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | pam_end.3 has additional and important information about PAM_DATA_SILENT, copy it to pam_set_data.3 since that describes the cleanup callback where it will be set.
| * manual pages: document usage of $DISPLAY and PAM_TTYThorsten Kukuk2023-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | man/pam_item_types_std.inc.xml: In the past, PAM_TTY was used for tty devices and $DISPLAY variables for X-based applications. With the introduction of PAM_DISPLAY PAM_TTY should only be used for devices.
| * manual pages: enhance pam.d documentationThorsten Kukuk2023-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make /usr/lib/pam.d and <vendordir>/pam.d more visible in the standard manual pages, so that people don't assume there is only /etc/pam.d * doc/man/pam.8.xml: Don't always speak about /etc/pam.d only * doc/man/pam.conf-desc.xml: Don't always speak about /etc/pam.d only * doc/man/pam.conf-dir.xml: Explain search path for pam config files * doc/man/pam.conf.5.xml: Add filelist with all pam.d directories
| * doc: Update PAM documentation from DockBook 4 to DocBook 5Stefan Schubert2022-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changed files -------------- Make.xml.rules.in: - Using RNG file instead of DTD file for checking XML files. - Taking the correct stylesheet for README files. doc/sag/Makefile.am, doc/adg/Makefile.am, doc/mwg/Makefile.am: - Using RNG file instead of DTD file for checking XML files. configure.ac: - Adding a new option for selecting RNG check file (-enable-docbook-rng) - Switching stylesheets to docbook 5 - Checking DocBook 5 environment instead of DocBook 4 environment *.xml: Update from DockBook 4 to DocBook 5
| * doc/man/Makefile.am: fix XMLS listThorsten Kukuk2022-12-06
| | | | | | | | | | The XMLS list of xml sources for the manual pages missed some xml files and instead contained some nroff sources.

| * pam.conf: clarify default action for unspecified return codesJeff Squyres2021-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add short blurbs explaining that if a return code is not specified in the "[value1=action1 value2=action2 ...]" form and "default=action" is not specified, that return code's action defaults to "bad". Signed-off-by: Jeff Squyres <jsquyres@cisco.com>

| * Clarify the effect of 'done' in documentationTomas Mraz2020-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The done action does not terminate the stack processing in case there is a failing module with bad action up in the stack. Fixes #307 * doc/man/pam.conf-syntax.xml: Clarify the effect of 'done'.

| * doc: fix the description of stack jump effectsDmitry V. Levin2020-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every stack jump, besides the jump itself, has a side effect which is one of 'ignore', 'ok', or 'bad'. Unfortunately, the side effect is far from obvious because it depends on the PAM function call, and the documentation that contradicts the implementation does not help either. * doc/man/pam.conf-syntax.xml (actionN): Rewrite the description of stack jump effects to match the implementation. Fixes: 871a6e14d65c3c446ae0af51166dabc7a47a2b56
| * man: document other valid pam_get_user return valuesDmitry V. Levin2020-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | * doc/man/pam_get_user.3.xml (pam_get_user-return_values): Add PAM_BUF_ERR, PAM_ABORT, and PAM_CONV_AGAIN.
| * doc: remove references to PAM_SM_* macrosDmitry V. Levin2020-05-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | Starting with commit a684595c0bbd88df71285f43fb27630e3829121e aka Linux-PAM-1.3.0~14 (Remove "--enable-static-modules" option and support from Linux-PAM), PAM_SM_* macros have no effect.
| * build: rework vendordir substitutionDmitry V. Levin2020-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since Make.xml.rules is the only place where XSLTPROC_CUSTOM was used, remove stereotypic definitions from other Makefiles, this way we no longer have to worry about vendordir being used somewhere else in documentation files. Likewise, define VENDORDIR in config.h and remove stereotypic -DVENDORDIR= additions from other Makefiles, this way we no longer have to worry about VENDORDIR being used somewhere else in the code. * configure.ac (AM_CONDITIONAL): Remove HAVE_VENDORDIR. (AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED): Add VENDORDIR. (AC_SUBST): Remove VENDORDIR, add STRINGPARAM_VENDORDIR. * Make.xml.rules.in: Replace $(XSLTPROC_CUSTOM) with @STRINGPARAM_VENDORDIR@. * doc/man/Makefile.am (XSLTPROC_CUSTOM): Remove. * libpam/Makefile.am [HAVE_VENDORDIR]: Remove. * modules/pam_securetty/Makefile.am [HAVE_VENDORDIR]: Remove. (XSLTPROC_CUSTOM): Remove. * modules/pam_securetty/pam_securetty.c: Move definitions of local macros after config.h to benefit from macros defined there.

| * Add support for a vendor directory and libeconf (#136)Thorsten Kukuk2019-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this, it is possible for Linux distributors to store their supplied default configuration files somewhere below /usr, while /etc only contains the changes made by the user. The new option --enable-vendordir defines where Linux-PAM should additional look for pam.d/*, login.defs and securetty if this files are not in /etc. libeconf is a key/value configuration file reading library, which handles the split of configuration files in different locations and merges them transparently for the application.
| * Fix the man page for "pam_fail_delay()"lifecrisis2019-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This man page contained the incorrect statement that setting the PAM_FAIL_DELAY item to NULL would disable any form of delay on authentication failure. I removed the incorrect statement and added a paragraph explaining how an application should properly avoid delays. Closes #137.
