PAM_SETENV(3)           NetBSD Library Functions Manual          PAM_SETENV(3)


NAME

     pam_setenv -- mirrors setenv(3)


SYNOPSIS

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

     int
     pam_setenv(pam_handle_t *pamh, const char *name, const char *value,
         int overwrite);


DESCRIPTION

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


RETURN VALUES

     The pam_setenv() function returns one of the following values:

     [PAM_SUCCESS]       Success.

     [PAM_BUF_ERR]       Memory buffer error.

     [PAM_SYSTEM_ERR]    System error.


SEE ALSO

     pam(3), pam_getenv(3), pam_getenvlist(3), pam_putenv(3), pam_strerror(3),
     setenv(3)


STANDARDS

     The pam_setenv() function is an OpenPAM extension.
