NAME
       pam_rootok -- RootOK PAM	module

SYNOPSIS
       [service-name] module-type control-flag pam_rootok [options]

DESCRIPTION
       The  RootOK  authentication service module for PAM, pam_rootok provides
       functionality for only one PAM category:	authentication.	 In  terms  of
       the  module-type	 parameter,  this is the "auth"	feature.  It also pro-
       vides a null function for session management.

   RootOK Authentication Module
       The RootOK authentication component (pam_sm_authenticate()), always re-
       turns success for the superuser;	i.e., if getuid(2) returns 0.

       The following options may be passed to the authentication module:

       debug	syslog(3) debugging information	at LOG_DEBUG level.

       no_warn	suppress warning messages to the user.	These messages include
		reasons	why the	user's authentication attempt was declined.
