The following error codes are returned upon error: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBPAM_SESSION_ERR\fR\fR .ad .RS 20n Cannot make or remove the entry for the specified session (PAM_TTY is not present). .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBPAM_USER_UNKNOWN\fR\fR .ad .RS 20n No account is present for \fIuser\fR. .RE .SH ATTRIBUTES .sp .LP See \fBattributes\fR(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: .sp .sp .TS box; c | c l | l . ATTRIBUTE TYPE ATTRIBUTE VALUE _ Interface Stability Evolving _ MT Level MT-Safe with exceptions .TE .SH SEE ALSO .sp .LP \fBpam\fR(3PAM), \fBpam_authenticate\fR(3PAM), \fBsyslog\fR(3C), \fBlibpam\fR(3LIB), \fBpam.conf\fR(4), \fBnsswitch.conf\fR(4), \fBattributes\fR(5), \fBpam_authtok_check\fR(5), \fBpam_authtok_get\fR(5), \fBpam_authtok_store\fR(5), \fBpam_dhkeys\fR(5), \fBpam_passwd_auth\fR(5), \fBpam_unix_account\fR(5),\fBpam_unix_auth\fR(5), .SH NOTES .sp .LP The interfaces in \fBlibpam\fR(3LIB) are MT-Safe only if each thread within the multi-threaded application uses its own PAM handle. .sp .LP The \fBpam_unix\fR(5) module is no longer supported. Similar functionality is provided by \fBpam_authtok_check\fR(5), \fBpam_authtok_get\fR(5), \fBpam_authtok_store\fR(5), \fBpam_dhkeys\fR(5), \fBpam_passwd_auth\fR(5), \fBpam_unix_account\fR(5), \fBpam_unix_auth\fR(5), and \fBpam_unix_session\fR(5).
