4 Rust interface to the pluggable authentication module framework (PAM).
5
6 The goal of this library is to provide a type-safe API that can be used to
7 interact with PAM. The library is incomplete - currently it supports a subset
8 of functions for use in a pam authentication module. A pam module is a shared
9 library that is invoked to authenticate a user, or to perform other functions.
10
11 Additionally, [pam-http](pam-http) is an example of using pam-rs by performing
12 HTTP basic access auth to authenticate users.
