39.Os
40.Sh NAME
41.Nm openpam_subst
42.Nd substitute PAM item values in a string
43.Sh LIBRARY
44.Lb libpam
45.Sh SYNOPSIS
46.In sys/types.h
47.In security/pam_appl.h
48.In security/openpam.h
49.Ft "int"
50.Fn openpam_subst "const pam_handle_t *pamh" "char *buf" "size_t *bufsize" "const char *template"
51.Sh DESCRIPTION
52The
53.Fn openpam_subst
54function expands a string, substituting PAM item
55values for all occurrences of specific substitution codes.
56The
57.Fa template
58argument points to the initial string.
59The result is stored in the buffer pointed to by the
60.Fa buf
61argument; the
62.Fa bufsize
63argument specifies the size of that buffer.
64The actual size of the resulting string, including the terminating NUL
65character, is stored in the location pointed to by the
66.Fa bufsize
67argument.
68.Pp
69If
70.Fa buf
71is NULL, or if the buffer is too small to hold the expanded
72string,
73.Fa bufsize
74is updated to reflect the amount of space required to
75hold the entire string, and
76.Fn openpam_subst
77returns
78.Dv PAM_TRY_AGAIN .
79.Pp
80If
81.Fn openpam_subst
82fails for any other reason, the
83.Fa bufsize
84argument is
85untouched, but part of the buffer may still have been overwritten.
86.Pp
87Substitution codes are introduced by a percent character and correspond
88to PAM items:
89.Bl -tag -width 18n
90.It \&%H
91Replaced by the current value of the
92.Dv PAM_RHOST
93item.
94.It \&%h
95Replaced by the current value of the
96.Dv PAM_HOST
97item.
98.It \&%s
99Replaced by the current value of the
100.Dv PAM_SERVICE
101item.
102.It \&%t
103Replaced by the current value of the
104.Dv PAM_TTY
105item.
106.It \&%U
107Replaced by the current value of the
108.Dv PAM_RUSER
109item.
110.It \&%u
111Replaced by the current value of the
112.Dv PAM_USER
113item.
114.El
115.Sh RETURN VALUES
116The
117.Fn openpam_subst
118function returns one of the following values:
119.Bl -tag -width 18n
120.It Bq Er PAM_SYSTEM_ERR
121System error.
122.It Bq Er PAM_TRY_AGAIN
123Try again.
