SYNOPSIS
     [service-name] module-type	control-flag pam_rootok	[options]

     functionality for only one	PAM category: authentication.  In terms	of the
     module-type parameter, this is the	``auth'' feature.  It also provides a
     null function for session management.

   RootOK Authentication Module
     The RootOK	authentication component (pam_sm_authenticate()), always
     returns success for the superuser;	i.e., if getuid(2) returns 0.

     The following options may be passed to the	authentication module:

     debug    syslog(3)	debugging information at LOG_DEBUG level.

     no_warn  suppress warning messages	to the user.  These messages include
	      reasons why the user's authentication attempt was	declined.
