Feature changed by: Sławomir Lach (Lachu) Feature #309311, revision 5 Title: GUI for PAM Package Wishlist: Evaluation by engineering manager Priority Requester: Important Requested by: The Liberator (l1b3rat0r) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I would like to see some kind of YAST-like tool for implementing PAM features for all types of logins. As it is now you can attempt unlimited logins via the terminal or a locked KDE screen. If there was a GUI for PAM that allowed the user to set maximum password tries, time-frames that login is allowed, and how long a session can last, then our computers would be much more secure. I have an encrypted hard drive, but once the computer is booted up and the hard drive is decrypted, I have no way of stopping a brute force attack. For the average user, PAM is too complicated to use all its features without reading for hours. This seems like the perfect feature to add to YAST. + Discussion: + #1: Sławomir Lach (lachu) (2012-05-04 21:35:33) + Mandriva have control center module to configure time-frames ( time of + computer usage ) for each user. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309311
