https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D208455 Bug ID: 208455 Summary: try_first_pass in man page but nonexistent in pam_unix code Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: mwlucas@michaelwlucas.com pam_unix(8) says: try_first_pass This option is similar to the use_first_pass optio= n, except that if the previously obtained password fails, the user is prompted for another password. Per DES: The try_first_pass option has never worked. It's never been implemented, in any FreeBSD version. Like, ever. The code isn't even there. This isn't an ex-parrot, it's a wholly imaginary one. It needs to be removed back to the beginning of time. Should also be removed from the pam_unix entries in /etc/pam.d/* files, but that would require me to fill out an entirely new bug report. And probably = make a patch. Making a patch would be SO MUCH more fun than writing a PAM book... but I'm going back to work like a good boy. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
