NAME
       pam_debug - PAM module to debug the PAM stack

SYNOPSIS
       pam_debug.so [auth=value] [cred=value] [acct=value]
                    [prechauthtok=value] [chauthtok=value] [auth=value]
                    [open_session=value] [close_session=value]

DESCRIPTION
       The pam_debug PAM module is intended as a debugging aide for
       determining how the PAM stack is operating. This module returns what
       its module arguments tell it to return.

OPTIONS
       auth=value
           The pam_sm_authenticate(3) function will return value.

       cred=value
           The pam_sm_setcred(3) function will return value.

       acct=value
           The pam_sm_acct_mgmt(3) function will return value.

       prechauthtok=value
           The pam_sm_chauthtok(3) function will return value if the
           PAM_PRELIM_CHECK flag is set.

       chauthtok=value
           The pam_sm_chauthtok(3) function will return value if the
           PAM_PRELIM_CHECK flag is not set.

       open_session=value
           The pam_sm_open_session(3) function will return value.

       close_session=value
           The pam_sm_close_session(3) function will return value.

       Where value can be one of: success, open_err, symbol_err, service_err,
       system_err, buf_err, perm_denied, auth_err, cred_insufficient,
       authinfo_unavail, user_unknown, maxtries, new_authtok_reqd,
       acct_expired, session_err, cred_unavail, cred_expired, cred_err,
       no_module_data, conv_err, authtok_err, authtok_recover_err,
       authtok_lock_busy, authtok_disable_aging, try_again, ignore, abort,
       authtok_expired, module_unknown, bad_item, conv_again, incomplete.

EXAMPLES
           auth    requisite       pam_permit.so
           auth    [success=2 default=ok]  pam_debug.so auth=perm_denied cred=success
           auth    [default=reset]         pam_debug.so auth=success cred=perm_denied
           auth    [success=done default=die] pam_debug.so
           auth    optional        pam_debug.so auth=perm_denied cred=perm_denied
