.SH DESCRIPTION
c22a38
c22a38
The purpose of this PAM configuration file is to provide a common
c22a38
place for all PAM modules which should be called after the stack
c22a38
configured in
c22a38
.BR system-auth
c22a38
or the other common PAM configuration files.
c22a38
c22a38
.sp
c22a38
The
c22a38
.BR postlogin
c22a38
configuration file is included from all individual service configuration
c22a38
files that provide login service with shell or file access.
c22a38
c22a38
.SH NOTES
c22a38
The modules in the postlogin configuration file are executed regardless
c22a38
of the success or failure of the modules in the
c22a38
.BR system-auth
c22a38
configuration file.

.SH BUGS
c22a38
.sp 2
c22a38
Sometimes it would be useful to be able to skip the postlogin modules in
c22a38
case the substack of the
c22a38
.BR system-auth
c22a38
modules failed. Unfortunately the current Linux-PAM library does not
c22a38
provide any way how to achieve this.
