Re: Console Login/Auth ~= GDM/KDM Login/Auth



Mark,

Thank you for the reply.

I have studied the files in /etc/pam.d and I am not sure I can figure

Here are the files:

login

auth       requisite  pam_securetty.so
auth       requisite  pam_nologin.so
auth       required   pam_env.so

account    required   pam_unix.so
session    required   pam_unix.so
session    optional   pam_lastlog.so
session    optional   pam_motd.so
