DESCRIPTION
These functions are OpenPAM extensions to the PAM API. Those named
pam_*() are, in the author's opinion, logical and necessary extensions to
the standard API, while those named openpam_*() are either simple
convenience functions, or functions intimately tied to OpenPAM
implementation details, and therefore not well suited to standardization.
