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 checks if the user's home directory
       exists, and if it does not, it invokes the mkhomedirfor method  of  the
       com.redhat.oddjob_mkhomedir  service  for the PAM_USER if the module is
       running with superuser privileges.  Otherwise, it invokes the mkmyhome‐
       dir method.

       The location of the skeleton directory and the default umask are deter‐
       mined by the configuration for the corresponding	 service  in  oddjobd-
       mkhomedir.conf,	so they can not be specified as arguments to this mod‐
       ule.

       If D-Bus has not been configured to allow the  calling  application  to
       invoke  these methods provided as part of the com.redhat.oddjob_mkhome‐
       dir interface of the / object provided by the com.redhat.oddjob_mkhome‐
       dir  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.
