[][src]Module parsec_service::authenticators::unix_peer_credentials_authenticator

Unix peer credentials authenticator

The UnixPeerCredentialsAuthenticator uses Unix peer credentials to perform authentication. As such, it uses the effective Unix user ID (UID) to authenticate the connecting process. Unix peer credentials also allow us to access the effective Unix group ID (GID) of the connecting process, although this information is currently unused.

Currently, the stringified UID is used as the application name.
