NAME¶
pamusb-check - simulates pam_usb authentication
SYNOPSIS¶
Usage: pamusb-check [--help] [--debug] [--config=path] [--service=name] [--dump]
[ --quiet] <username>
DESCRIPTION¶
pamusb-check can simulate authentication through the pam_usb engine. It
is useful for both testing purposes (to check the pam_usb configuration
without having to try with a real program), but also for scripting.
pamusb-check's exit code is 0 if the authentication was successful, 1
otherwise. It is used by pamusb-agent to check the device.
