# This is the configuration file for pam_env, a PAM module to load in
|
|
# a configurable list of environment variables for a
|
|
#
|
|
# The original idea for this came from Andrew G. Morgan ...

# Mmm. Perhaps you might like to write a pam_env module that reads a
|
|
# default environment from a file? I can see that as REALLY
|
|
# useful... Note it would be an "auth" module that returns PAM_IGNORE
|
|
# for the auth part and sets the environment returning PAM_SUCCESS in
|
|
# the setcred function...

# What I wanted was the REMOTEHOST variable set, purely for selfish
|
|
# reasons, and AGM didn't want it added to the SimpleApps login
|
|
# program (which is where I added the patch). So, my first concern is
|
|
# that variable, from there there are numerous others that might/would
|
|
# be useful to be set: NNTPSERVER, LESS, PATH, PAGER, MANPAGER .....
|
|
#
|
|
# Of course, these are a different kind of variable than REMOTEHOST in
|
|
# that they are things that are likely to be configured by
|
|
# administrators rather than set by logging in, how to treat them both
|
|
# in the same config file?
|
|
#
|
|
# Here is my idea:
|
|
#
|
|
# Each line starts with the variable name, there are then two possible
|
|
# options for each variable DEFAULT and OVERRIDE.
|
|
# DEFAULT allows and administrator to set the value of the
|
|
# variable to some default value, if none is supplied then the empty
|
|
# string is assumed. The OVERRIDE option tells pam_env that it should
|
|
# enter in its value (overriding the default value) if there is one
|
|
# to use. OVERRIDE is not used, "" is assumed and no override will be
|
|
# done.
|
|
#
|
|
# VARIABLE [DEFAULT=[value]] [OVERRIDE=[value]]
|
|
#
|
|
# (Possibly non-existent) environment variables may be used in values
|
|
# using the ${string} syntax and (possibly non-existent) PAM_ITEMs may
|
|
# be used in values using the @{string} syntax. Both the $ and @
|
|
# characters can be backslash escaped to be used as literal values
|
|
# values can be delimited with "", escaped " not supported.
|
|
# Note that many environment variables that you would like to use
|
|
# may not be set by the time the module is called.
|
|
# For example, HOME is used below several times, but
|
|
# many PAM applications don't make it available by the time you need it.
|
|
#
|
|
#
|
|
# First, some special variables
|
|
#
|
|
# Set the REMOTEHOST variable for any hosts that are remote, default
|
|
# to "localhost" rather than not being set at all
|
|
#REMOTEHOST DEFAULT=localhost OVERRIDE=@{PAM_RHOST}
|
|
#
|
|
# Set the DISPLAY variable if it seems reasonable
|
|
#DISPLAY DEFAULT=${REMOTEHOST}:0.0 OVERRIDE=${DISPLAY}
|
|
#
|
|
#
|
|
# Now some simple variables
|
|
#
|
|
#PAGER DEFAULT=less
|
|
#MANPAGER DEFAULT=less
|
|
#LESS DEFAULT="M q e h15 z23 b80"
|
|
#NNTPSERVER DEFAULT=localhost
|
|
#PATH DEFAULT=${HOME}/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin\
|
|
#:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin/X11:/usr/bin/X11
|
|
#
|
|
# silly examples of escaped variables, just to show how they work.
|
|

#DOLLAR DEFAULT=\$

#DOLLARDOLLAR DEFAULT= OVERRIDE=\$${DOLLAR}
