The PAM environment variables represent the contents of the regular environment variables of the authenticated user when service is granted. +.PP +The format of the memory is a malloc()'d array of char pointers, the last element of which is set to NULL. Each of the non\-NULL entries in this array point to a NUL terminated and malloc()'d char string of the form: "\fIname=value\fR". +.PP +It should be noted that this memory will never be free()'d by libpam.
