1744269bb5SchristosThe
18e1b25b17Schristos.Fn openpam_nullconv
1944269bb5Schristosfunction is a null conversation function suitable
2044269bb5Schristosfor applications that want to use PAM but don't support interactive
2144269bb5Schristosdialog with the user.
2244269bb5SchristosSuch applications should set
2344269bb5Schristos.Dv PAM_AUTHTOK
2444269bb5Schristosto whatever authentication
2544269bb5Schristostoken they've obtained on their own before calling
2644269bb5Schristos.Xr pam_authenticate 3
2744269bb5Schristosand / or
2844269bb5Schristos.Xr pam_chauthtok 3 ,
2944269bb5Schristosand their PAM configuration should specify the
3044269bb5Schristos.Dv use_first_pass
3144269bb5Schristosoption for all modules that require access to the
3244269bb5Schristosauthentication token, to make sure they use
3344269bb5Schristos.Dv PAM_AUTHTOK
341ae23164Schristosrather than try to query the user.
