 Description: Configure PAM to create a local user if it do not exist already
- When the user log in for the first time, a local user is created in
- /etc/passwd and primary group created in /etc/group, and a local home
- directory is created in /home.  This is useful on roaming computers when
- the password is set up to be cached by for example libpam-ccreds or sssd
- to allow login without network connectivity using the password provided
- by a network authentication service like Kerberos or LDAP.
+ When the user logs in for the first time, a local POSIX user account is
+ created in /etc/passwd and primary group created in /etc/group, and a
+ local home directory is created in /home.
+ .
+ This is useful on roaming computers when the password is set up to be
+ cached by for example libpam-ccreds or sssd to allow login without
+ network connectivity using the password provided by a network
+ authentication service like Kerberos or LDAP.
+ .
+ Other than the caching mechanisms of libpam-ccreds or libpam-sssd /
+ libnss-sssd, the libpam-mklocaluser approach makes the LDAP accounts
+ more persistent on the roaming workstation and robust again credentials
+ cache deletions and such.
+ .
+ The pam_mklocaluser PAM module additionally allows for execution of
+ additional hook scripts when users log in to such a roaming computer for
+ the first time.
