Template: libpam-runtime/profiles Type: multiselect Choices: ${profiles} Choices-C: ${profile_names} _Description: PAM profiles to enable: Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) determine how authentication, authorization, and password changing are handled on the system, as well as allowing configuration of additional actions to take when starting user sessions. . Some PAM module packages provide profiles that can be used to automatically adjust the behavior of all PAM-using applications on the system. Please indicate which of these behaviors you wish to enable.

Template: libpam-runtime/override Type: boolean Default: false _Description: Override local changes to /etc/pam.d/common-*? One or more of the files /etc/pam.d/common-{auth,account,password,session} have been locally modified. Please indicate whether these local changes should be overridden using the system-provided configuration. If you decline this option, you will need to manage your system's authentication configuration by hand. Template: libpam-runtime/no_profiles_chosen Type: error _Description: No PAM profiles have been selected. No PAM profiles have been selected for use on this system. This would grant all users access without authenticating, and is not allowed. Please select at least one PAM profile from the available list. Template: libpam-runtime/you-had-no-auth Type: note _Description: Your system allows access with no password! When you configured PAM on this system, you elected to disable all PAM profiles. As a result, any password will be accepted to gain access to the system; even incorrect passwords will gain access. Especially if this system can be accessed from the Internet, it is likely that malicious software has been installed and the system compromised. Unless you are familiar with recovering from security failures, viruses, and malicious software you should re-install this system from scratch or obtain the services of a skilled system administrator. For more information see http://www.debian.org/security/pam-auth . The PAM packaging has been improved and the automated PAM configuration tool no longer permits this configuration. We apologize that previous versions of the PAM configuration did not detect and prevent this situation.
