pam-panel-icon

PAM-PANEL-ICON(1)					      General Commands Manual						 PAM-PANEL-ICON(1)

NAME

       pam-panel-icon - A notification area indicator of pam_timestamp status

SYNOPSIS

       pam-panel-icon

DESCRIPTION

       pam-panel-icon  should  be  automatically  started when starting an X11 desktop environment.  For example, in GNOME gnome-session should be
       configured to start pam-panel-icon.  In a properly configured system it should never be necessary to start pam-panel-icon manually.

       pam-panel-icon uses pam_timestamp_check(8) to watch the pam_timestamp timestamp status.	If  the  pam_timestamp	authorization  is  active,
       allowing  an  unprivileted user to temporarily authenticate as the root user without providing a password, an icon in the notification area
       of the panel is displayed.  The icon allows dropping the authorization immediately.

EXIT STATUS

       Ordinarily, pam-panel-icon keeps running until the X11 desktop session ends, and then returns 0.  pam-panel-icon only returns with non-zero
       status on unexpected error.

FILES

       /sbin/pam_timestamp_check
	      A hard-coded location of the pam_timestamp_check executable.

SEE ALSO

       pam_timestamp(8), pam_timestamp_check(8)
