libpam-mklocalusre
===================

PAM configuration to enable add users able to log in, presumably using
some network directory information like NIS or LDAP, and when they log
in a local users with the uid and gid information from the networked
directory is created, and their password is cached on the local disk
to allow them to log in also when disconnected from the net.

For sites using a path to home directories on the form
/site/hostname/partition/username/, it would be confusing if the local
home directory with that path showed up on the local machine and not on
the expected server.  To avoid this problem, the local user is created
with /home/username/ as the home directory, allowing the remote file system
to be automounted on /site/hostname/partition/.

This package depend on pam_python from
