NAME

       pam_oddjob_mkhomedir.so - PAM module to create users home directory via oddjob

SYNOPSIS

       session optional /lib/security/pam_oddjob_mkhomedir.so

DESCRIPTION

       The  pam_oddjob_mkhomedir.so  module  checks if the user's home directory exists, and if it does not, it invokes the mkhomedirfor method of
       the com.redhat.oddjob_mkhomedir service for the PAM_USER if the module is running with superuser privileges.   Otherwise,  it  invokes  the
       mkmyhomedir method.

       The  location of the skeleton directory and the default umask are determined by the configuration for the corresponding service in oddjobd-
       mkhomedir.conf, so they can not be specified as arguments to this module.

       If D-Bus has not been configured to allow the calling application to invoke these methods provided as part of the com.redhat.oddjob_mkhome-
       dir  interface  of the / object provided by the com.redhat.oddjob_mkhomedir service, then oddjobd will not receive the request and an error
       will be returned by D-Bus.

       If oddjobd has not been configured to provide these methods, or the user is not authorized to use them, then oddjobd will ignore  the  mod-
       ule's requests.

NAME

     pam_chroot -- Chroot PAM module

SYNOPSIS

     [service-name] module-type control-flag pam_chroot [arguments]

DESCRIPTION

     The chroot service module for PAM chroots users into either a predetermined directory or one derived from their home directory.  If a user's
     home directory as specified in the passwd structure returned by getpwnam(3) contains the string ``/./'', the portion of the directory name to
     the left of that string is used as the chroot directory, and the portion to the right will be the current working directory inside the chroot
     tree.  Otherwise, the directories specified by the dir and cwd options (see below) are used.

     also_root	Do not hold user ID 0 exempt from the chroot requirement.

     always	Report a failure if a chroot directory could not be derived from the user's home directory, and the dir option was not specified.

     cwd=directory
		Specify the directory to chdir(2) into after a successful chroot(2) call.

     dir=directory
		Specify the chroot directory to use if one could not be derived from the user's home directory.
