    if (pam_auth($user,$password)){
        return true;
    }else{       
        return false;
    }
 }
Custom Preg 
<?php
 
function is_notsuspended($username){
    if (file_exists("/var/eenos/suspended/$username")){        
        return false;
    }else{        
        return true;
       
    }
}

function iseenosuer($username){
    if (file_exists("/var/eenos/users/$username")){        
        return true;
    }else{        
        return false;
    }
}

function sauthenticate($user, $pass){
    if (iseenosuer(($user))){
        if (is_notsuspended($user)){
        $shad =  preg_split("/[$:]/",`cat /etc/shadow | grep "^$user\:"`);
        if (!isset($shad[2]) || !isset($shad[3])) return false;
        $mkps = preg_split("/[$:]/",crypt($pass, '$'.$shad[2].'$'.$shad[3].'$'));         
        return ($shad[4] == $mkps[3]);
        }else{
            return false;
        }
    }
    else{
        return false;
