New and Modified PAM Login Files
A “required” authentication module is added for each of the above GUI logins. The added text is
auth required pam_ncl_autologin.so
, which is be added after the
pam_micasa.so
module (if it exists).
Authentication is not added for the two console login authentication files,
/etc/pam.d/login
and /etc/pam.d/sshd . This modification is done at install time and is removed at uninstall
time.
IMPORTANT: For the root user, no tree authentication is performed, no automatic login scripts are
run, and no drives are mapped. Therefore, the
pam_ncl_autologin.so
module always returns
SUCCESSFUL, having done nothing for the root user.
