    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

    <para>
      pam_permit is a PAM module that always permit access. It does
      nothing else.
    </para>
    <para>
      In the case of authentication, the user's name will be set to
      <emphasis>nobody</emphasis> if the application didn't set one.
      Many applications and PAM modules become confused if this name
      is unknown.
    </para>
    <para>
      This module is very dangerous. It should be used with extreme
      caution.
