NAME

     pam_winbind - PAM module for Winbind

DESCRIPTION

     This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.

     pam_winbind is a PAM  module  that  can  authenticate  users
     against the local domain by talking to the Winbind daemon.

OPTIONS

     pam_winbind supports several options which can either be set
     in  the PAM configuration files or in the pam_winbind confi-
     guration file  situated  at  /etc/security/pam_winbind.conf.
     Options  from  the PAM configuration file take precedence to
     those from the configuration file.

     debug
        Gives debugging output to syslog.

     require_membership_of=[SID or NAME]
        If this option is set, pam_winbind will only  succeed  if
        the  user is a member of the given SID or NAME. A SID can
        be either a group-SID, a alias-SID or even a user-SID. It
        is  also possible to give a NAME instead of the SID. That
        name   must   have   the   form:    MYDOMAIN\mygroup   or
        MYDOMAIN\myuser.  pam_winbind  will, in that case, lookup
        the SID internally. Note that NAME may  not  contain  any
        spaces.  It is thus recommended to only use SIDs. You can
        verify the list of SIDs a user is a member of with wbinfo
        --user-sids=SID.

     try_first_pass

     use_first_pass
        By default, pam_winbind tries to get  the  authentication
        token from a previous module. If no token is available it
        asks the user for the old  password.  With  this  option,
        pam_winbind  aborts  with  an  error if no authentication
        token from a previous module is available.

     use_authtok
        Set the new password to the one provided  by  the  previ-
        ously  stacked password module. If this option is not set
        pam_winbind will ask the user for the new password.

     krb5_auth
        pam_winbind can authenticate using Kerberos when winbindd
        is talking to an Active Directory domain controller. Ker-
        beros authentication must be enabled with this parameter.
        When Kerberos authentication can not succeed (e.g. due to
        clock  skew),  winbindd   will   fallback   to   samlogon

        authentication over MSRPC. When this parameter is used in
        conjunction with winbind refresh  tickets,  winbind  will
        keep  your  Ticket  Granting  Ticket  (TGT)  uptodate  by
        refreshing it whenever necessary.

     krb5_ccache_type=[type]
        When pam_winbind is configured to try kerberos  authenti-
        cation by enabling the krb5_auth option, it can store the
        retrieved Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT)  in  a  credential
        cache.  The type of credential cache can be set with this
        option. Currently the only supported value is:  FILE.  In
        that   case   a   credential   cache   in   the  form  of
        /tmp/krb5cc_UID will be created, where  UID  is  replaced
        with the numeric user id. Leave empty to just do kerberos
        authentication without having a ticket  cache  after  the
        logon has succeeded.

     cached_login
        Winbind allows to logon  using  cached  credentials  when
        winbind  offline  logon  is  enabled. To use this feature
        from the PAM module this option must be set.

     silent
        Do not emit any messages.
