This is a perl module to use \fB\f(BIlckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR and \fB\f(BIulckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR to lock
the \fI/etc/passwd\fR and (if present) \fI/etc/shadow\fR files.

.PD
.PP
The random timeout is controlled by \fB\f(CB$File::LckPwdF::Rand_Wait\fB\fR,
which is exported on request. It is used via
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    sleep int(rand($Rand_Wait) + 1);
.Ve
.PP
inside an until loop. This sleep is only done if
\&\fB\f(CB$File::LckPwdF::Rand_Wait\fB\fR is above 0.
.PP
\&\fB\f(CB$timeout\fB\fR defaults to \fB\f(CB$File::LckPwdF::Default_Timeout\fB\fR, which is
also exported on request; the initial setting of
\&\fB\f(CB$File::LckPwdF::Default_Timeout\fB\fR (the default default) is 15
seconds. The default setting for \fB\f(CB$File::LckPwdF::Rand_Wait\fB\fR is 10
seconds.
.PP
\&\fB\f(BIunlock_passwd()\fB\fR
.PP
This function uses \fB\f(BIulckpwdf()\fB\fR. If \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR has previously
been used to lock the passwd file, and \fB\f(BIunlock_passwd()\fB\fR has not been
used to lock it, then it will be used to unlock the passwd file in an
\&\s-1END:\s0 statement.  (Admittedly, with many implementations of
\&\fB\f(BIlckpwdf()\fB\fR this is not necessary, since when a process exits it
loses the passwd file lock; it is present as a safety measure for
those systems for which this is not true.)
.SS "Functions exported by request"
.IX Subsection "Functions exported by request"
\&\fB\f(BIlckpwdf()\fB\fR
\&\fB\f(BIulckpwdf()\fB\fR
.PP
These are the xs-loaded versions of \fB\f(BIlckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR and \fB\f(BIulckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR,
respectively.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUE"
The \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR and \fB\f(BIunlock_passwd()\fB\fR functions return 1 on
success and 0 on failure.  The return values for \fB\f(BIlckpwdf()\fB\fR and
\&\fB\f(BIulckpwdf()\fB\fR are the same as for the system versions (\fB\f(BIlckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR
and \fB\f(BIulckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR).
.SH "ERRORS"
.IX Header "ERRORS"
If the effective \s-1UID\s0 is not 0, then \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR and
\&\fB\f(BIunlock_passwd()\fB\fR set \fB$!\fR to \fB\s-1EACCES\s0\fR if they fail (they do try
once, just in case you've got a \fIreally\fR weird setup).
.PP
If the effective \s-1UID\s0 is 0, in the event of failure, \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR
sets \fB$!\fR to:
.IP "1. if you've already locked the file through \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR, \fB\s-1EALREADY\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "1. if you've already locked the file through lock_passwd(), EALREADY"
.PD 0
.ie n .IP "2. \fB\s-1EAGAIN\s0\fR (or \fB\s-1EWOULDBLOCK\s0\fR, if \fB\s-1EAGAIN\s0\fR isn't present on your system and \fB\s-1EWOULDBLOCK\s0\fR is; \fB\fB$File::LckPwdF::EAGAIN\fB\fR, which is exported on request, is equal to the value returned)." 4

If you try to use a negative number for \fB\f(CB$timeout\fB\fR with
\&\fBlock_passwd($timeout)\fR, it carps, returns 0, and sets \fB$!\fR to
\&\fB\s-1EINVAL\s0\fR.
.SH "CAVEATS"
.IX Header "CAVEATS"
This program only works if your system has \fB\f(BIlckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR and
\&\fB\f(BIulckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR. This should be true of \s-1SVR4\s0 systems; others will
vary. If you use \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR and \fB\f(BIunlock_passwd()\fB\fR,
\&\fB\f(BIlckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR and \fB\f(BIulckpwdf\fB\|(3)\fR need to have return values of 0+ for
success and below 0 (usually \-1) for failure.
.PP
The timeout period for \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR is approximate, since many
versions of \fB\f(BIlckpwdf()\fB\fR will keep trying for a total of 15 seconds to
lock the passwd (and possibly shadow) files before they return an
appropriate value.
.PP
This module only keeps track on its own of whether the passwd file is
locked if you always use \fB\f(BIlock_passwd()\fB\fR and \fB\f(BIunlock_passwd()\fB\fR. If
you use \fB\f(BIlckpwdf()\fB\fR or \fB\f(BIulckpwdf()\fB\fR by themselves for locking and
unlocking, you will need to set \fB\f(CB$File::LckPwdF::Passwd_Locked\fB\fR to 1
for locked and 0 for unlocked yourself.

anyone's interested, be my guest (or for any other improvements, of
course).
