| Linux / Unix Command: pam_timestamp_check |
NAME
pam_timestamp_check - check or clear authentication timestampsSYNOPSIS
pam_timestamp [[-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.
