SM_AUTHORITY

This environment variable determines the selection of the authority programs used by the software for different parts of the authentication process. For example:

SM_AUTHORITY=IDENTIFY=<program1>,AUTHENTICATE=<program2>

where:

• <program1> is the program granting credentials

• <program2> is the program validating credentials.

  Note:

  Program1 and program2 may refer to the same program.

• SM_AUTHORITY=<STD> means:

   SM_AUTHORITY=IDENTIFY=sm_authority,AUTHENTICATE=sm_authority
  

• SM_AUTHORITY=<NONE> means:

   SM_AUTHORITY=IDENTIFY=sm_authnone,AUTHENTICATE=sm_authnone
  

• SM_AUTHORITY=someAuthority means:

   SM_AUTHORITY=IDENTIFY=someAuthority,AUTHENTICATE=someAuthority
  

  Optional arguments can be specified after the authority name. A comma may not be included within the program name. A comma may appear in the arguments if the argument is quoted.

  If SM_AUTHORITY is not specified, SM_AUTHORITY=<STD> is assumed.
