Your script (or program) will be run automatically by the pure-authd
daemon. It will pass login name, password, local ip-address + port and
the remote IP-address by setting environment variables. Your script
should, in turn, print "auth_ok:1" to the standard output, as well as
the uid, gid and homedirectory for the account to use.

See "man pure-authd" for the names of the environment variables and the
exact format of the text to print to stdout.
