Authen::Passphrase::AcceptAll 0.005

Authen::Passphrase::AcceptAll is a Perl module that can be used to accept any passphrase.

SYNOPSIS

 use Authen::Passphrase::AcceptAll;

 $ppr = Authen::Passphrase::AcceptAll->new;

 $ppr = Authen::Passphrase::AcceptAll
 ->from_crypt("");

 $ppr = Authen::Passphrase::AcceptAll
 ->from_rfc2307("{CRYPT}");

 if($ppr->match($passphrase)) { ...

 $passphrase = $ppr->passphrase;

 $passwd = $ppr->as_crypt;
 $userPassword = $ppr->as_rfc2307;

An object of this class is a passphrase recogniser that accepts any passphrase whatsoever. This is a subclass of Authen::Passphrase, and this document assumes that the reader is familiar with the documentation for that class.

This type of passphrase recogniser is obviously of no use at all in controlling access to any resource. Its use is to permit a resource to be public in a system that expects some type of passphrase access control.
