+ <description>
+ <p>
+ A helper binary for the pam_dotfile module, pam-dotfile-helper, is provided to
+ check the user's password. This binary is very simple and
+ will only check the password of the user invoking it. It is called
+ transparently on behalf of the user by the authenticating component of
+ the pam_dotfile module. In this way it is possible for applications
+ to work without being setuid root.

+ <section name="usage">
+ <p>
+ This program is not intended to be called directly by users and will
+ log to syslog if it is called improperly (i.e., by someone trying to
+ exploit it).
