WARNINGS
If /etc/group is linked to /etc/logingroup, and group membership for the user trying to log in is managed by the Network Information Service (NIS), and no NIS server is able to respond, login waits until a server does respond.
DEPENDENCIES
Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM)
PAM is an Open Group standard for user authentication, password modi®cation, and validation of accounts. In particular, pam_authenticate() is invoked to perform all functions related to login. This includes retrieving the password, validating the account, and displaying error messages. pam_chauthtok() is invoked during password expiration or establishment.
HP Process Resource Manager
If the optional HP Process Resource Manager (PRM) software is installed and con®gured, the login shell is launched in the user's initial process resource group. If the user's initial group is not de®ned, the shell runs in the user default group (PRMID=1). See prmcon®g(1) for a description of how to con®gure HP PRM, and prmconf(4) for a description of how the user's initial process resource group is determined.
