nodm - X display manager for automatic logins SYNOPSIS
nodm [options] DESCRIPTION
nodm is a minimal display manager that simply logs in as a given user and starts an X session, without asking for username or password. On a normal computer, using nodm is a big security issue because it would give anyone access to the computer. However, there are cases where automatic login is needed: for example in an embedded system such as a mobile phone, or in a kiosk setup, or in a control panel for industrial machinery. For those cases, nodm is simple to setup, lightweight, and it should do exactly the right thing. OPTIONS
--help print this help message --version print nodm's version number --verbose verbose outpout or logging --quiet only log warnings and errors --nested run a nested X server, does not require root. The server defaults to "/usr/bin/Xnest :1", override with NODM_X_OPTIONS --[no-]syslog enable/disable logging to syslog --[no-]stderr enable/disable logging to stderr AUTHOR

eurephia-auth(7) eurephia-auth(7) NAME
eurephia-auth - The eurephia OpenVPN authentication plug-in DESCRIPTION
The eurephia-auth.so is a plug-in for OpenVPN. It is loaded by providing the --plugin option in the OpenVPN configuration. The syntax for OpenVPN and eurephia-auth is: plugin eurephia-auth.so "<plugin args> -- <DB args>" Please notice the quotes and the double dash. They are important markers so that the eurephia-auth module receives all arguments (the quotes) and that it knows when to pass on the rest of the arguments to the defined database driver, separated by the double dash. This manual page will only look at the <plugin args> options. For the <DB args> options, refer to the corresponding database driver you are using. OPTIONS
--log-destination | -l This defines how eurephia will do its logging. It can take a filename to log to a file. If the string is openvpn: it will pass the log data over to OpenVPN, which will combine the OpenVPN and eurephia logs. You can also log via syslog, by indicating syslog:. The last possible special value is none: which will disable logging completely. With syslog: you can also define which syslog facility the logging will go to. The default is to log to the user facility. Other supported facilities are authpriv, daemon and local0 to local7. To send log data to the daemon the --log-destination argument need to be --log-destination syslog:daemon --log-level | -L This defines how verbose the eurephia logging will be. The required argument to this option must be a numeric value, where 0 indi- cates as little logging as possible - only giving informative messages, or a high value like 50 to give really verbose logging. In general a log level less than 4 should be more than enough under normal circumstances. NOTICE: The highest log level is 10, unless the eurephia-auth modules have been compiled with debug features. --database-interface | -i This argument must have a full path to the eurephia database driver module. This defines which database interface eurephia will use. OPENVPN CLIENTS
The only change the OpenVPN clients needs to do is to add auth-user-pass to their configuration file. This instructs the OpenVPN client to ask for user name and password when starting the connection. SEE ALSO
