1 | .TH SYSTEM-AUTH 5 "2006 Feb 3" "Red Hat" "Linux-PAM Manual" |
| 2 | .SH NAME | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | system-auth \- Common configuration file for PAMified services | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | .SH SYNOPSIS | |
| 7 | .B /etc/pam.d/system-auth | |
| 8 | .sp 2 | |
| 9 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| 10 | ||
| 11 | The purpose of this configuration file is to provide common | |
| 12 | configuration file for all applications and service daemons | |
| 13 | calling PAM library. | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | .sp | |
| 16 | The | |
| 17 | .BR system-auth | |
| 18 | configuration file is included from all individual service configuration | |
| 19 | files with the help of the | |
| 20 | .BR include | |
| 21 | directive. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | .SH NOTES | |
| 24 | There should be no | |
| 25 | .BR sufficient | |
| 26 | modules in the | |
| 27 | .BR session | |
| 28 | part of | |
| 29 | .BR system-auth | |
| 30 | file because individual services may add session modules after | |
| 31 | .BR include | |
| 32 | of the | |
| 33 | .BR system-auth | |
| 34 | file. Execution of these modules would be skipped if there were sufficient | |
| 35 | modules in | |
| 36 | .BR system-auth | |
| 37 | file. | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | .sp | |
| 40 | Conversely there should not be any modules after | |
| 41 | .BR include | |
| 42 | directive in the individual service files in | |
| 43 | .BR auth account | |
| 44 | and | |
| 45 | .BR password | |
| 46 | sections otherwise they could be bypassed. | |
