NAME
pam_nologin -- NoLogin PAM module
SYNOPSIS
[service-name] module-type control-flag pam_nologin [options]
DESCRIPTION
The NoLogin service module for PAM, pam_nologin provides functionality for only one PAM category: account management. In terms of the module-type parameter, this is the ``account'' feature. NoLogin Account Management Module The NoLogin account management component, pam_sm_acct_mgmt(), verifies whether logins are administratively disabled via nologin(5). It returns success if the user's login class has an "ignorenologin" capability specified in login.conf(5) or the nologin(5) file does not exist. If neither condition is met, then the contents of nologin(5) are echoed before failure is returned. The location of nologin(5) is specified by a "nologin" capability in login.conf(5), which defaults to /var/run/nologin. The following options may be passed to the module: debug syslog(3) debugging information at LOG_DEBUG level. no_warn suppress warning messages to the user. These messages include reasons why the user's login attempt was declined.
