NAME
       /$LIB/security/pam_krb5/pam_krb5_storetmp - Temporary file helper


SYNOPSIS
       pam_krb5_storetmp pattern [uid] [gid]


DESCRIPTION
       The  pam_krb5.so  module  uses  pam_krb5_storetmp to create and remove temporary files.  It is not intended for any other
       use.


ARGUMENTS
       pattern
              A filename pattern of the form /tmp/fooXXXXXX.  A temporary file will be created using  mkstemp(3)  and  any  data
              provided to standard input will be piped to the file.  Upon reading an end-of-file, the helper will print the name
              of the created file.
              If the pattern does not end with the distinctive patterh XXXXXX, then the file is simply deleted.


       uid    An optional numeric UID which the helper will attempt to switch to before creating the file.  The helper continues
              in its task if the attempt fails.


       gid    An optional numeric GID which the helper will attempt to switch to before creating the file.  The helper continues
              in its task if the attempt fails.


FILES
       /$LIB/security/pam_krb5.so

BUGS
       Probably, but let's hope not.  If you find any, please file them  in  the  bug  database  at  http://bugzilla.redhat.com/
       against the "pam_krb5" component.
