DESCRIPTION</h3></div></div></div><p> pam_localuser is a PAM module to help implementing site-wide login policies, where they typically include a subset of the network's users and a few accounts that are local to a particular workstation. Using pam_localuser and pam_wheel or pam_listfile is an effective way to restrict access to either local users and/or a subset of the network's users. </p><p> This could also be implemented using pam_listfile.so and a very short awk script invoked by cron, but it's common enough to have been separated out. </p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="sag-pam_localuser-options"></a>6.17.2.
