NethServer::Validation

  Routines for handling system-wide validators

Example
      use NethServer::Validation;

      my $exitcode = NethServer::Validation::validate($validator, @args);

validate()

  Searches for all validator scripts inside the validator directory,
  '/etc/e-smith/validators' then executes them.

  A successful validation occurs when all scripts return 0 (success
  validation) or at least one script returns 2 (sufficient valid condition).
  Otherwise validation fails.

  Each script in the validator directory must return one of these exit
  values:

    0: successful validation

    1: validation failed (generic)

    2: sufficient validation (successful)

    3..255: failed with specific reason

  When a script returns 2 (sufficient validation) no further script will be
  processed and the validate() is successful.

  Scripts are not supposed to generate error messages under normal
  conditions, so we do not provide a mechanism for validator handlers to
  signal errors to the user. Errors can only be written to the log file.

Return value
  The validate() function returns 0 on failure, 1 on success.
