114 * The =pam_get_user function returns the name of the target user, as
115 * specified to =pam_start.
116 * If no user was specified, nor set using =pam_set_item, =pam_get_user
117 * will prompt for a user name.
118 * Either way, a pointer to the user name is stored in the location
119 * pointed to by the =user argument.
121 * The =prompt argument specifies a prompt to use if no user name is
123 * If it is =NULL, the =PAM_USER_PROMPT item will be used.
124 * If that item is also =NULL, a hardcoded default prompt will be used.
125 * Either way, the prompt is expanded using =openpam_subst before it is
126 * passed to the conversation function.
128 * If =pam_get_user is called from a module and the ;user_prompt option is
129 * set in the policy file, the value of that option takes precedence over
130 * both the =prompt argument and the =PAM_USER_PROMPT item.
