const char *
pam_strerror(const
pam_handle_t *pamh, int
error_number);
The
pam_strerror()
function returns a pointer to a string containing a textual description of
the error indicated by the error_number argument. The
pamh argument is ignored. For compatibility with other
implementations, it should be either a valid PAM handle returned by a
previous call to
pam_start(3), or
NULL.
The pam_strerror() function returns
NULL on failure.

The pam_strerror() function and this
manual page were developed for the FreeBSD Project
by ThinkSec AS and Network Associates Laboratories, the Security Research
Division of Network Associates, Inc. under DARPA/SPAWAR contract
N66001-01-C-8035 (“CBOSS”), as part of the DARPA CHATS
research program.
