✨ NAME ✨

cvm-unix — the UNIX/POSIX-standard module 🌸

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

cvm-unix

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no flags, no drama, just her name 💅

🔑 CREDENTIALS 🔑

Pass phrase ✨

(yeah that's the credential type this module is here for — a pass phrase, periodt)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea ☕ this module validates credentials using the POSIX standard getpwnam(3) and crypt(3) APIs. iconic behavior, no cap.

and if your system happens to have either the getuserpw API or the getspnam API, then those get used too — specifically to locate the encrypted password. so it's giving "we have options and we're using them" 👑

None 🙈
