SYSTEM-AUTH-AC(5)					     SYSTEM-AUTH-AC(5)

NAME
       system-auth-ac  - Common configuration file for PAMified services writ‐
       ten by authconfig(8)

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac

DESCRIPTION
       The purpose of this configuration file is to provide common  configura‐
       tion file for all applications and service daemons calling PAM library.

       The system-auth configuration file is included from all individual ser‐
       vice configuration files with the help of the include  directive.  When
       authconfig(8)  writes the system PAM configuration file it replaces the
       default system-auth file with a symlink pointing to system-auth-ac  and
       writes  the  configuration  to this file. The symlink is not changed on
       subsequent configuration changes even  if  it  points  elsewhere.  This
       allows  system  administrators to override the configuration written by
       authconfig.

EXAMPLE
       Configure system to use pam_tally2 for configuration of maximum	number
       of failed logins. Also call pam_access to verify if access is allowed.

       Make system-auth symlink point to system-auth-local which contains:

       auth	       requisite       pam_access.so
       auth	       requisite       pam_tally2.so deny=3 lock_time=30 \
					     unlock_time=3600
       auth	       include	       system-auth-ac
       account	       required	       pam_tally2.so
       account	       include	       system-auth-ac
       password	       include	       system-auth-ac
       session	       include	       system-auth-ac

BUGS
       None known.
