45.Op Fl a Ar style
46.Op Fl t Ar timeout
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48.Nm
49requests a password from the user, reads it again for verification
50and then will normally not relinquish the terminal until the password is
51repeated.
52There are two other conditions under which it will terminate: it
53will timeout after some interval of time and it may be killed by someone
54with the appropriate privileges.
55.Pp
56If
57.Nm lock-np
58is called, it will behave like
59.Nm lock
60with
61.Fl np
62specified.
63This modus operandi is intended for use with GNU screen.
64.Pp
65The options are as follows:
66.Bl -tag -width Ds
67.It Fl a Ar style
68The specified BSD Authentication login
69.Ar style
70(as specified in
71.Pa /etc/login.conf )
72will be used to authenticate the user.
73If the particular
74.Ar style
75requires a challenge/response handshake or a special prompt, the
76user may enter the name of the
77.Ar style
78to get the standard prompt for that
79.Ar style .
80.It Fl n
81Don't use a timeout value.
82Terminal will be locked forever.
83.It Fl p
84A password is not requested, instead the user's current login password
85is used.

87To do this the user should enter
88.Qq s/key
89at the unlock
90.Dq Key:
91prompt.

93challenge to which they may respond with a six-word S/Key one-time
94password.
