sysutils/fprintd 0.8.1p3 OpenBSD

fprintd is a daemon to offer libfprint functionality over D-Bus.

API use cases:

• User wants to use the fingerprint reader, and enroll his fingerprints, or remove some fingerprints from the database

• Administrator wants to enroll fingerprints for a particular user, or remove fingerprints for a particular user

• Laptop/desktop authentication: * Check for fingerprint devices * Check whether a particular user has any fingerprints enrolled * Verify a fingerprint for a particular user, or, if the device supports it, verify that the fingerprint matches against any of the fingerprints enrolled

• Point Of Sale authentication (in a bar, the fingerprint reader is used to see who accesses a particular point of sale/till, in place of PIN code authentication and/or tokens) * Given a list of users, verify which one has scanned their finger
