Net::Dropbear::XS::AuthState - Manage the authentication information of a user's login attempt.
This type of object is created and passed during the on_passwd_fill hook. See Net::Dropbear::SSHd for details. There is no new method for this object, it is only created based on the struct from Dropbear.
All of these attributes are set to sane defaults. They can be left as-is or updated to new values. Note that they should be sane values; the uid and gid should exist in the system. Otherwise the results will be undefined.
These attributes represent values that are normally read from the passwd file.

Default: The current user's UID.
The GID of the user attempting to login.
Default: The current user's GID.
The user's home directory.

The login shell of the user. This should be set to a valid shell as defined by /etc/shells. See shells(5).
/etc/shells
Default: The empty string, which is interpreted as /bin/sh.
/bin/sh
The name of the user attempting login. Changing this will be seen by later hooks.
