pam_shells — PAM module to check for valid login shell ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ DESCRIPTION pam_shells is a PAM module that only allows access to the system if the user's shell is listed in /etc/shells. If this file does not exist, entries are taken from files %vendordir%/shells, %vendordir%/shells.d/* and /etc/shells.d/* in that order. It also checks if needed files (e.g. /etc/shells) are plain files and not world writable. OPTIONS This module does not recognise any options.
