# OpenVPN PAM AUTHENTICATON
#   This script can be used to add PAM-based authentication
#   to OpenVPN 2.0.  The OpenVPN client must provide
#   a username/password, using the --auth-user-pass directive.
#   The OpenVPN server should specify --auth-user-pass-verify
#   with this script as the argument and the 'via-file' method
#   specified.  The server can also optionally specify
#   --client-cert-not-required and/or --username-as-common-name.

# SCRIPT OPERATION
#   Return success or failure status based on whether or not a
#   given username/password authenticates using PAM.
#   Caller should write username/password as two lines in a file
#   which is passed to this script as a command line argument.

# CAVEATS
#   * Requires Authen::PAM module, which may also
#     require the pam-devel package.
#   * May need to be run as root in order to
#     access username/password file.

# NOTES
#   * This script is provided mostly as a demonstration of the
#     --auth-user-pass-verify script capability in OpenVPN.
#     For real world usage, see the auth-pam module in the plugin
#     folder.
