# chkusr
|
||||
|
||||
chkusr is a set of programs to verify information about a user on a UNIX based systems.
|
||||
|
||||
## chkgrp
|
||||
|
||||
chkgrp is a set of programs to verify if a user is a member of a group on a UNIX based system. This code is so simple that it describes itself very good.
|
||||
|
||||
More information will follow... Actually there are multiple programs with some different behavior. I will write more about this, but for now I will not.
|
||||
|
||||
## chkpwd
|
||||
|
||||
chkpwd is a program that checks the validity of a users password on a UNIX/[PAM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluggable_Authentication_Module)-based system.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently chkpwd is only tested on Linux, but it should work on a [AIX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_AIX), [DragonFly BSD](https://www.dragonflybsd.org/), [FreeBSD](https://www.freebsd.org/), [HP-UX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP-UX), [Linux](https://kernel.org/), [macOS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacOS), [NetBSD](https://netbsd.org/) and [Solaris](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_Solaris) operating system too.
|
||||
|
||||
## The idea
|
||||
### The idea
|
||||
|
||||
I needed a program to verify passwords of users on Linux/UNIX systems using PAM that just returns 0 on success and 1 on error.
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
### Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
You need the PAM development package installed. On Alpine it is named linux-pam-dev, on Debian based systems it is libpam0g-dev.
