|

|

## The idea behind:
|
||||
|
||||
I needed a program to verify passwords of users on Linux based systems using PAM.
|
||||
|
||||
Exactly a program like this... not more!
|
||||
|
||||
# Installation:
|
||||
|
||||
**WARNING:** Install this software with care. checkpw could easily be used for bruteforcing passwords from local users!
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone https://git.xw3.org/hanez/checkpw.git
|
||||
cd checkpw

|

sudo make install

```
|
||||
|
||||
The code only supports verifying passwords for user id 1000 by default. Look a the code for some compile time options!
|
||||
|
||||
Set MAX_UID and MIN_UID in the code or you can compile checkpw without editing the code using the following command and install it manually:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
gcc -Werror -lpam -lpam_misc -DMAX_UID=1000 -DMIN_UID=1000 -o checkpw checkpw.c
|
||||
sudo cp ./checkpw /usr/bin/
|

```
