114 * The =pam_get_user function returns the name of the target user, as
115 * specified to =pam_start.
116 * If no user was specified, nor set using =pam_set_item, =pam_get_user
117 * will prompt for a user name.
118 * Either way, a pointer to the user name is stored in the location
119 * pointed to by the =user argument, and the corresponding PAM item is
122 * The =prompt argument specifies a prompt to use if no user name is
124 * If it is =NULL, the =PAM_USER_PROMPT item will be used.
125 * If that item is also =NULL, a hardcoded default prompt will be used.
126 * Additionally, when =pam_get_user is called from a service module, the
127 * prompt may be affected by module options as described below.
128 * The prompt is then expanded using =openpam_subst before it is passed to
129 * the conversation function.
133 * When called by a service module, =pam_get_user will recognize the
134 * following module options:
137 * Prompt to use when asking for the user name.
138 * This option overrides both the =prompt argument and the
139 * =PAM_USER_PROMPT item.
