Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

.Sh NAME

|
.Nm nologin
|
|
.Nd disallow logins
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Programs such as
|
|
.Xr login 1
|
|
disallow logins if the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
file exists.
|
|
The programs display the contents of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to the user if possible and interrupt the login sequence.
|
|
This makes it simple to temporarily prevent incoming logins systemwide.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To disable logins on a per-account basis,
|
|
investigate
|
|
.Xr nologin 8 .
|
|
.Sh SECURITY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
file is ignored for user root by default.
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
feature is implemented through
|
|
.Xr login.conf 5 ,
|
|
which allows to change the pathname of the
|
|
file and to extend the list of users
|
|
exempt from temporary login restriction.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
PAM-aware programs can be selectively configured to respect
|
|
.Nm
|
|
using the
|
|
.Xr pam_nologin 8
|
|
module via
|
|
.Xr pam.conf 5 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
file will be removed at system boot if it resides in
|
|
.Pa /var/run
|
|
and
|
|
.Va cleanvar_enable
|
|
is set to
|
|
.Dq Li YES
|
|
in
|
|
.Xr rc.conf 5 ,
|
|
which is default.
|
|
Therefore system reboot can effectively re-enable logins.
