| | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: new feature Commit summary: --------------- some applications are not prepared to get a SIGCHLD from a child process they didn't think they launched, so we now suppress this signal for the duration of use of the helper binary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: cleanup Commit summary: --------------- These were all suggestions from the OS X patch provided by Luke Howard. There is another proposed patch for OS X support which promises to be a little cleaner with the heavy stuff, so I am committing these simple changes now, with the intention of moving to the other patch for the big stuff (see 534205).

* Relevant BUGIDs: 517064Andrew G. Morgan2002-05-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: feature Commit summary: --------------- document old feature and add '\]' parsing to make it a better feature. The feature is that we can accept spaces in module arguments by enclosing the whole argument inside square brackets. For example a module argument like this: "[hello [you\], this is me]" will be parsed as "hello [you], this is me" Not very interesting, but you get the idea. Thanks to Russell Kliese for requesting this.

| | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: bugfixes Commit summary: --------------- Both of these fixes inspired by use with X based services. The first makes a TTY of the form hostname:0 work (if you specify a different separator with the module argument "fieldsep=". The second treats "" for a RHOST the same way it would treat a NULL value.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: bugfix and document Commit summary: --------------- The login limit counting seemed to have its math incorrect.

Thanks to Berend De Schouwe for getting to the bottom of this issue.

* Relevant BUGIDs: 129775Andrew G. Morgan2001-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose of commit: bugfix Commit summary: --------------- This bugfix leads to backwardly incompatable behavior with earlier releases of Linux-PAM. Note, this cleans up the setcred/session and chauthtok stacks in such a way that it is no longer preferred that the setcred module always return the same error code as the auth components of said modules did. This means behavior should be a great deal more sane. It also gives meaning to the unique return codes that are available to pam_sm_setcred. [I'm sure that when we add support for credential relevant events, this change will be critical.]

Hopefully, this will complete the merge.]
