Hello,
Need just a small pointer to information on how to write an
authentication program
i.e. login_<SOMEWHAT> ? Because sources left much info outside.
Is there a specification or something?
Thanks.
You'll want to read login.conf(5), in particular the AUTHENTICATION
section (it's not just a list of provided programs!). I'm not sure if
there are other sources of documentation, but it does appear to document
the protocol fairly well.
Logically I can understand, that password will be provided as an input
on file descriptor 3.
But I cannot find that in manual...
