+
+    <para>
+      pam_permit is a PAM module that always permit access. It does
+      nothing else.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      In the case of authentication, the user's name will be set to
+      <emphasis>nobody</emphasis> if the application didn't set one.
+      Many applications and PAM modules become confused if this name
+      is unknown.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      This module is very dangerous. It should be used with extreme
+      caution.
