NAME

pam_deny - Deny PAM module

SYNOPSIS

[service-name] module-type control-flag pam_deny [options]

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.
