LOGIN_KRB5-OR-PWD(8) OpenBSD System Manager's Manual LOGIN_KRB5-OR-PWD(8)NAME
login_krb5-or-pwd - provide KerberosV or password authentication type
SYNOPSIS
login_krb5-or-pwd [-s service] [-v arguments] user [class]
DESCRIPTION
The login_krb5-or-pwd program first attempts to authenticate the user via
KerberosV and, failing that, falls back to standard password
authentication.
If KerberosV is not configured on the system, login_krb5-or-pwd is
equivalent to calling login_passwd(8). When root tries to login,
login_krb5-or-pwd skips KerberosV authentication, as this may give
problems in case of a network failure.
The user argument is the user's name to be authenticated.
The service argument specifies which protocol to use with the invoking
program. The allowed protocols are login, challenge, and response. (The
challenge protocol is silently ignored but will report success as
KerberosV authentication is not challenge-response based).
The arguments following -v are the same as for login_krb5(8) and
login_passwd(8). Unknown arguments are ignored.
login_krb5-or-pwd will prompt the user for a password and report back to
the invoking program whether or not the authentication was successful.
