error_number);
pam_strerror
() function returns a pointer to a
string containing a textual description of the error indicated by the
error_number argument in the context of the PAM
transaction described by the pamh. 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
.
pam_strerror
() function returns
NULL
on failure.
pam_strerror
() function and this manual page were
