SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <security/pam_appl.h>

         int overwrite);


DESCRIPTION

     The pam_setenv function sets a environment variable.  Its semantics are
     similar to those of setenv(3), but it modifies the PAM context's environ-
     ment list instead of the application's.


RETURN VALUES

     The pam_setenv function returns one of the following values:

     [PAM_BUF_ERR]       Memory buffer error.

     [PAM_SYSTEM_ERR]    System error.


SEE ALSO

     setenv(3)


STANDARDS
