Description: |-
Configure PAM to create a local user if it does not exist already
When the user logs in for the first time, a local POSIX user account is
created in /etc/passwd, a primary group is 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.
