pam_timestamp_check(8) -- Linux man page
NAME
pam_timestamp_check - check or clear authentication timestamps
SYNOPSIS
pam_timestamp_check [[-d]|[-k]] [target_user]
DESCRIPTION
With no arguments,
pam_timestamp_check
will check to see if the default timestamp is valid, or optionally remove it.
OPTIONS
- -k
-
instead of checking the validity of a timestamp, remove it. This is analogous
to sudo's
-k
option.
- -d
-
Instead of returning validity using an exit status, loop indefinitely,
polling regularly and printing the status on standard output.
- target_user
-
The default behavior of
pam_timestamp_check
checks or removes timestamps generated by
pam_timestamp
when the user authenticates as herself. When the user authenticates as a
different user, the name of the timestamp file changes to accomodate this.
DIAGNOSTICS
When checking if a timestamp is valid,
pam_timestamp_check
returns an exit code of 0 for success and > 0 on error:
2: binary is not setuid-root
3: invalid invocation
4: user unknown
5: permissions error
6: invalid controlling tty
7: other error
