- .SH "NAME"
- mkhomedir_helper \- Helper binary that creates home directories
- .SH "SYNOPSIS"
- .HP \w'\fBmkhomedir_helper\fR\ 'u
- \fBmkhomedir_helper\fR {\fIuser\fR} [\fIumask\fR\ [\ \fIpath\-to\-skel\fR\ [\ \fIhome_mode\fR\ ]\ ]]
- .SH "DESCRIPTION"
- .PP
- \fImkhomedir_helper\fR
- is a helper program for the
- \fIpam_mkhomedir\fR
- module that creates home directories and populates them with contents of the specified skel directory\&.
- .PP
- The default value of
- \fIumask\fR
- is 0022 and the default value of
- \fIpath\-to\-skel\fR
- is
- \fI/etc/skel\fR\&. The default value of
- \fIhome_mode\fR
- is computed from the value of
- \fIumask\fR\&.
- .PP
- 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
- \fImkhomedir_helper\fR\&.
- .PP
- The helper never touches home directories if they already exist\&.
- .SH "SEE ALSO"
- .PP
- \fBpam_mkhomedir\fR(8)
- .SH "AUTHOR"
- .PP
- Written by Tomas Mraz based on the code originally in
- \fIpam_mkhomedir\fR
- module\&.
