Feature changed by: Stephan Kulow (coolo) Feature #304970, revision 8 Title: YaST UI for pam_mount configuration openSUSE-11.1: Rejected by Stanislav Visnovsky (visnov) reject date: 2008-09-12 16:48:23 reject reason: Postponing. Priority Requester: Important openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jiří Suchomel (jsuchome) Description: See bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=347144: user requests a way for configuring pam_mount. We already have feature 300967 for some part, maybe other parts of it could be used in samba-client module. Michael, please check which parts might have sense + Relations: + - inlcude pam_mount in an up-to-date version and provide a YaST + interface for it (novell/bugzilla/id: 0) + https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=0 Discussion: #1: Michael Calmer (mcalmer) (2008-06-30 11:25:01) Hmm, maybe we should think about a general solution. We use currently pam_mount for encrypted home directiories. Mounting samba shares is requested and now we have a general request to configure pam_mount. The pam_mount configuration is more or less the same like /etc/fstab. It provides all filesystem types which are supported via fstab and some more with special handling from pam_mount directly. The main difference is, that it is possible to have general rules which applies for all users logging-in, groups of users (supporting uid ranges, by guid or guid ranges or group names) and rules which applies only for a single user. For single user configuration a plugin for the users module would be good, but for more general rules a special module would be the best way. Such a module should have an API which can be used by other modules like samba-client to push in special rules needed fo this kind of configuration. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/304970
