pam_oddjob_mkhomedir(8)pam_oddjob_mkhomedir(8)NAME
pam_oddjob_mkhomedir.so
SYNOPSIS
session optional /lib/security/pam_oddjob_mkhomedir.so
DESCRIPTION
The pam_oddjob_mkhomedir.so module invokes the mkhomedirfor method of
the com.redhat.oddjob 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 deter‐
mined by the configuration for the corresponding service in odd‐
jobd.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 inter‐
face of the /com/redhat/oddjob object provided by the com.redhat.oddjob
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.
