pam_sqlite Description

pam_sqlite allows developers to authenticate users against a table in an SQLite database. pam_sqlite allows developers to authenticate users against a table in an SQLite database. pam_sqlite supports checking account information (pam_acct_expired, new_authtok_reqd) and updating authentication tokens.Compilation & Installationpam_sqlite is autoconf'ed, thus, compiling should be a matter of:$ ./configure$ make$ make installCompilation has been tested on RedHat Linux 7.3.You will need to have SQLite library and header files for this module to compile.See test.c for an example application that authenticates using this module.Configuration:For the service you wish the module to be used, you need to edit the /etc/pam.d/ file or /etc/pam.conf, and add the relevant lines.For example:auth required pam_sqlite.so account required pam_sqlite.sopassword required pam_sqlite.soConfigure the database, and table the module should use with the configuration file /etc/pam_sqlite.conf. An example of this file: database = /etc/sysdbtable = accountuser_column = user_namepwd_column = user_passwordexpired_column = acc_expirednewtok_column = acc_new_pwreqdebugexpired_column tells PAM if the user account has expired. Set it to '1' or 'y' if it has.newtok_column tells PAM if the user needs a new password. Set it to '1' or 'y' if it does.Note that for backwards compatibility with earlier versions, options specified in the configuration file can be supplied as module arguments as well. Module arguments will override the configuration file. Configuration Options:database - the database which should be connected touser_column - the column containing usernamespwd_column - the column containing the passwordsexpired_column - this column should contain '1' or 'y' if the account has expirednewtok_column - this column should contain '1' or 'y' if the user needs to change their passworddebug - this is a standard module option that will enable debug output to syslog (takes no values)pw_type - specifies the password encryption scheme, can be one of 'clear', 'md5', or 'crypt'. defaults to 'clear'.config_file - specifies the path to a file to read for further configuration optionssql_verify - specifies SQL template to use when verifying the the password for a usersql_check_expired - SQL template to use when checking for account expiry.sql_check_newtok - SQL template to use when checking to see if the user needs to change their password.sql_set_passwd - SQL template to use when updating the password for and user.
