DESCRIPTION
The deny authentication service module for PAM provides functionality for all the PAM categories: authentication, account management, session management and password management. In terms of the
module-type parameter, these are the “
auth”, “
account”, “
session”, and “
password” features.
The Deny module will universally deny all requests. It is primarily of use during testing, and to “null-out” unwanted functionality.
The following options may be passed to the module:
-
debug
-
syslog(3) debugging information at LOG_DEBUG level.
-
no_warn
-
suppress warning messages to the user. These messages include reasons why the user's authentication attempt was declined.
