.SH DESCRIPTION
904b9f
904b9f
The purpose of this PAM configuration file is to provide a common
904b9f
place for all PAM modules which should be called after the stack
904b9f
configured in
904b9f
.BR system-auth
904b9f
or the other common PAM configuration files.
904b9f
904b9f
.sp
904b9f
The
904b9f
.BR postlogin
904b9f
configuration file is included from all individual service configuration
904b9f
files that provide login service with shell or file access.

.SH NOTES
904b9f
The modules in the postlogin configuration file are executed regardless
904b9f
of the success or failure of the modules in the
904b9f
.BR system-auth
904b9f
configuration file.

.SH BUGS
904b9f
.sp 2
904b9f
Sometimes it would be useful to be able to skip the postlogin modules in
904b9f
case the substack of the
904b9f
.BR system-auth
904b9f
modules failed. Unfortunately the current Linux-PAM library does not
904b9f
provide any way how to achieve this.
