It is called by pam-aware apps normally after a user has been authenticated by pam_authenticate(), the user's account has been verified by pam_acct_mgmt(), and a session has been started by pam_open_session(). It is used to set the credentials of the user, which are like properties which make that user unique. pam_setcred() calls the pam_sm_setcred() functions of the loaded modules for that particular stack of modules. If you're interested in pam_setcred(), you probably want to learn to write a pam-aware application. Have a look in /usr/doc/pam-* and see if the pam docs are installed on your Redhat system.
