+There are two versions of the shared object API; the old version (0)

 .Sh IMPLEMENTING A PASSWORD QUALITY CHECKING SHARED OBJECT
-The object needs to provide a entry point called
+(This refers to the version 1 API only.)
+.Pp
+Module shared objects may conveniently be compiled and linked with
+.Xr libtool 1 .
+An object needs to export a symbol called
 .Ql kadm5_password_verifier
 of the type
 .Ft "struct kadm5_pw_policy_verifier" .
 .Pp
+Its
 .Ft name 
 and
 .Ft vendor
-is filled in with the obvious information and
+fields should be contain the obvious information and
 .Ft version
-is set to
+should be
 .Dv KADM5_PASSWD_VERSION_V1 .
-The
-.Ft type
-contains a array of
+.Ft funcs
+contains an array of
 .Ft "struct kadm5_pw_policy_check_func"
-structures that is terminated with a entry where the
+structures that is terminated with an entry whose
 .Ft name
 component is
 .Dv NULL .
+The
+.Ft func
+Fields of the array elements are functions that are exported by the
+module to be called to check the password.  They get the following
+arguments:  the Kerberos context, principal, password, a tuning parameter, and
+a pointer to a message buffer and its length.  The tuning parameter
+for the quality check function is currently always
+.Dv NULL .
+If the password is acceptable, the function returns zero.  Otherwise
+it returns non-zero and fills in the message buffer with an
+appropriate explanation.
+.Sh RUNNING THE CHECKS
+.Nm kadm5_setup_passwd_quality_check
+sets up type 0 checks.  It sets up all type 0 checks defined in 
+.Xr krb5.conf 5
+if called with the last two arguments null.
+.Pp
+.Nm kadm5_add_passwd_quality_verifier
+sets up type 1 checks.  It sets up all type 1 tests defined in
+.Xr krb5.conf 5
+if called with a null second argument.
+.Nm kadm5_check_password_quality
+runs the checks in the order in which they are defined in
+.Xr krb5.conf 5
+and the order in which they occur in a
+module's
+.Ft funcs
+array until one returns non-zero.
