From 3db1c497e455fafabf30076670dd0164a8ce2aa6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christopher Head Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2018 21:52:04 -0700 Subject: Fix documentation for pam_wheel By default, pam_wheel checks for applicant membership in the wheel group for *all* access requests, regardless of whether the target user is root or non-root. Only if root_only is provided does it limit the membership check to cases when the target user is root. Update the documentation to reflect this. --- modules/pam_wheel/pam_wheel.8.xml | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'modules/pam_wheel/pam_wheel.8.xml') diff --git a/modules/pam_wheel/pam_wheel.8.xml b/modules/pam_wheel/pam_wheel.8.xml index c8d93773..b32f5e2b 100644 --- a/modules/pam_wheel/pam_wheel.8.xml +++ b/modules/pam_wheel/pam_wheel.8.xml @@ -43,8 +43,8 @@ DESCRIPTION The pam_wheel PAM module is used to enforce the so-called - wheel group. By default it permits root - access to the system if the applicant user is a member of the + wheel group. By default it permits + access to the target user if the applicant user is a member of the wheel group. If no group with this name exist, the module is using the group with the group-ID 0. -- cgit v1.2.3
