pam_misc_setenv

BSD like PAM environment variable setting

          #include <security/pam_misc.h>

            int pam_misc_setenv
            pam_handle_t *pamh
            const char *name
            const char *value
            int readonly

## DESCRIPTION

This function performs a task equivalent to

pam_putenv

3 , its syntax is, however, more like the BSD style function; `setenv()`. The `name` and `value` are concatenated with an '=' to form a name=value and passed to `pam_putenv()`. If, however, the PAM variable is already set, the replacement will only be applied if the last argument, `readonly`, is zero.
