NAME <\/a> <\/h2>\n

DESCRIPTION <\/a> <\/h2>\n

The pam_mkhomedir PAM module will create a users home directory if it does not exist when the session begins. This allows users to be present in central database (such as NIS, kerberos or LDAP) without using a distributed file system or pre\u2212creating a large number of directories. The skeleton directory (usually \/etc\/skel\/) is used to copy default files and also sets a umask for the creation.<\/p>\n

The new users home directory will not be removed after logout of the user.<\/p>\n
