<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
<emphasis>mkhomedir_helper</emphasis> is a helper program for the
<emphasis>pam_mkhomedir</emphasis> module that creates home directories
and populates them with contents of the specified skel directory.
</para>
<para>
The default value of <replaceable>umask</replaceable> is 0022 and the
default value of <replaceable>path-to-skel</replaceable> is
<emphasis>/etc/skel</emphasis>. The default value of
<replaceable>home_mode</replaceable> is computed from the value of
<replaceable>umask</replaceable>.
</para>
<para>
The helper is separated from the module to not require direct access from
login SELinux domains to the contents of user home directories. The
SELinux domain transition happens when the module is executing the
<emphasis>mkhomedir_helper</emphasis>.
</para>
<para>
The helper never touches home directories if they already exist.
