Using this mechanism, an application can communicate X authentication data to PAM service modules\&. This allows modules to make a connection to the user\*(Aqs X display in order to label the user\*(Aqs session on login, display visual feedback or for other purposes\&. -.PP -The -\fIname\fR -field contains the name of the authentication method, such as "MIT\-MAGIC\-COOKIE\-1"\&. The -\fInamelen\fR -field contains the length of this string, not including the trailing NUL character\&. -.PP -The -\fIdata\fR -field contains the authentication method\-specific data corresponding to the specified name\&. The -\fIdatalen\fR -field contains its length in bytes\&. -.PP -The X authentication data can be changed with the -\fIPAM_XAUTH_DATA\fR -item\&. It can be queried and set with -\fBpam_get_item\fR(3) -and -\fBpam_set_item \fR(3) -respectively\&. The value used to set it should be a pointer to a pam_xauth_data structure\&. An internal copy of both the structure itself and its fields is made by PAM when setting the item\&. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.PP -\fBpam_start\fR(3), -\fBpam_get_item\fR(3), -.SH "STANDARDS" -.PP -The -\fBpam_xauth_data\fR -structure and -\fIPAM_XAUTH_DATA\fR -item are Linux\-PAM extensions\&. |
