NAME
     pam_smb_passwd - SMB password management module

SYNOPSIS
     pam_smb_passwd.so.1


DESCRIPTION
     The pam_smb_passwd module enhances the PAM password  manage-
     ment  stack.  This  functionality  supports  the changing or
     adding of SMB passwords for local Solaris users. The Solaris
     SMB  server  uses  SMB  passwords  to authenticate connected
     Solaris     users.     This     module     includes      the
     pam_sm_chauthtok(3PAM) function.


     The pam_sm_chauthtok() function accepts the following flags:

     PAM_PRELIM_CHECK

         Always returns PAM_IGNORE.


     PAM_SILENT

         Suppresses messages.


     PAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK

         Updates or creates a new SMB local LM/NTLM hash for  the
         user  that is specified in PAM_USER by using the authen-
         tication information found in PAM_AUTHTOK. The  LM  hash
         is  only created if the smbd/lmauth_level property value
         of  the  smb/server  service  is  set  to  3  or   less.
         PAM_IGNORE  is  returned if the user is not in the local
         /etc/passwd repository.



     The following options can be passed  to  the  pam_smb_passwd
     module:

     debug

         Produces  syslog(3C)  debugging   information   at   the
         LOG_AUTH or LOG_DEBUG level.


     nowarn

         Suppresses warning messages.
