NAME
siad_chg_finger, siad_chg_password, siad_chg_shell - Dependent SIA
change routines (Security Integration Architecture)
LIBRARY
Standard C library (libc.so and libc.a)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sia.h>
#include <siad.h>
int siad_chg_finger(
int (*collect)(),
char *username,
int argc,
char *argv[]);
int siad_chg_password(
int (*collect)(),
char *username,
int argc,
char *argv[]);
int siad_chg_shell(
int (*collect)(),
char *username,
int argc,
char *argv[]);
PARAMETERS
collect The collect parameter is a pointer to an SIA collection rou-
tine. If this pointer is NULL, no collection is possible.
The collect parameter should never be NULL. This parameter
is read only.
Further input on SIA collection routines is available from
the interface specifications in /usr/include/{sia,siad}.h.
username The username parameter is used when a precollected username
is available. The username parameter either points to the
precollected username or is set to NULL if no username ex-
ists. This parameter is read only.
argc The argc parameter is the number of arguments used when in-
voking the calling command or utility. This parameter are
read only.
argv The argv parameter is the array of arguments used when invok-
ing the calling command or utility. The argv[0] variable
must always be set to the calling commands name. This is
used for logging or auditing of the password change function.
DESCRIPTION
siad_chg_finger()
This routine is called by sia_chg_finger() to accomplish processing as-
sociated with the chfn command with respect to a specific security
mechanism. Only one siad_chg_finger() routine is called. No sequencing
of multiple security mechanisms is attempted.
siad_chg_password()
This routine is called by sia_chg_password() to invoke a specific mech-
anisms change password function. Only one siad_chg_password() routine
is called. This routine accomplishes the process commonly associated
with the passwd command. No sequencing of multiple security mechanisms
is attempted.
siad_chg_shell()
This routine is called by sia_chg_shell() to accomplish processing as-
sociated with the chsh command with respect to a specific security
mechanism. Only one siad_chg_shell() routine is called. No sequencing
of multiple security mechanisms is attempted.
RETURN VALUES
The siad_ses_*() routines return bitmapped values which indicate the
following status:
SIADSUCCESS Indicates unconditional success. All bits set to 0.
SIADFAIL Indicates conditional failure. Lowest bit set to 1. If
other security mechanism are in place, continue.
SIADSTOP Indicates unconditional failure. Do not continue. Second
lowest bit set to 1.
ERRORS
The errno values are those returned from the dynamic loader interface,
from the (siad_*) routines, or from malloc. Possible errors include
resource constraints (no memory) and various authentication failures.
