cfreak has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I need to check user's passwords on a unix system but not login as the user I did some searching and came across this node. From there I looked at the reply involving Authen::PAM Unfortunatly I'm no closer to solving my problem.

Looking at the Authen::PAM module documentation I couldn't seem to figure out a way to simply verify users without trying to login as them. Has anyone done this? Please help.
