Using pam_localuser and pam_wheel or pam_listfile is an effective way to restrict access to either local users and/or a subset of the network's users. +.PP +This could also be implemented using pam_listfile.so and a very short awk script invoked by cron, but it's common enough to have been separated out. +.SH "OPTIONS" +.PP +.PP +\fBdebug\fR +.RS 3n +Print debug information. +.RE +.PP +\fBfile=\fR\fB\fI/path/passwd\fR\fR +.RS 3n +Use a file other than +\fI/etc/passwd\fR. +.RE +.SH "MODULE SERVICES PROVIDED" +.PP +All services (\fBaccount\fR, +\fBauth\fR, +\fBpassword\fR +and +\fBsession\fR) are supported. +.SH "RETURN VALUES" +.PP +.PP +PAM_SUCCESS +.RS 3n +The new localuser was set successfull. +.RE +.PP +PAM_SERVICE_ERR +.RS 3n +No username was given. +.RE +.PP +PAM_USER_UNKNOWN +.RS 3n +User not known. +.RE +.SH "EXAMPLES" +.PP +Add the following line to +\fI/etc/pam.d/su\fR +to allow only local users in group wheel to use su. +.sp +.RS 3n +.nf +account sufficient pam_localuser.so +account required pam_wheel.so + +.fi +.RE +.sp +.SH "FILES" +.PP +\fI/etc/passwd\fR +.RS 3n +Local user account information. +.RE +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.PP + +\fBpam.conf\fR(5), +\fBpam.d\fR(8), +\fBpam\fR(8) +.SH "AUTHOR" +.PP +pam_localuser was written by Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>. |
