MKHOMEDIR_HELPER

NAME
mkhomedir_helper - Helper binary that creates home directories
SYNOPSIS
-
mkhomedir_helper {user} [umask [ path-to-skel ]]
DESCRIPTION
mkhomedir_helper
is a helper program for the
pam_mkhomedir
module that creates home directories and populates them with contents of the specified skel directory.
The default value of
umask
is 0022 and the default value of
path-to-skel
is
/etc/skel.
The helper is separated from the module to not require direct access from login SELinux domains to the contents of user home directories. The SELinux domain transition happens when the module is executing the
mkhomedir_helper.
The helper never touches home directories if they already exist.
