Summary: Libraries and tools implementing the tcb password shadowing scheme
Description:
This package consists of three components: pam_tcb, libnss_tcb, and libtcb. pam-tcb is a PAM module which supersedes pam_unix. It also implements the tcb password shadowing scheme (see tcb(5) for details). The tcb scheme allows many core system utilities (passwd(1) being the primary example) to operate with little privilege. libnss_tcb is the accompanying NSS module. libtcb contains code shared by the PAM and NSS modules and is also used by programs from the shadow-utils package.
