NAME
pam_misc_setenv - BSD like PAM environment variable setting
SYNOPSIS
#include <security/pam_misc.h>
-
int pam_misc_setenv(pam_handle_t *pamh, const char *name, const char *value, int readonly);
DESCRIPTION
This function performs a task equivalent to
pam_putenv(3), its syntax is, however, more like the BSD style function;
setenv(). The
name
and
value
are concatenated with an '=' to form a name=value and passed to
pam_putenv(). If, however, the PAM variable is already set, the replacement will only be applied if the last argument,
readonly, is zero.
