The problem with pam_mkhomedir is that it runs under the context of the login programs, which requires us to give all login programs the ability to manage all content within the users homedir. We are trying to confine apps like sshd/xdm/rlogind from this access, to prevent flaws that could reveal data in the homedir without have a login password. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.16 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkyGVIAACgkQrlYvE4MpobOBdwCgjMipL9Ev4ZILGtv7E8Q5gs4I 5q4AnifmE2BwZZEeq3Z6iiYMMKLrSth7 =lUPe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
