pam_issue - PAM module to add issue file to user prompt
pam_issue.so [noesc] [issue=issue-file-name]
pam_issue is a PAM module to prepend an issue file to the username
prompt. It also by default parses escape codes in the issue file
similar to some common getty's (using \x format).
Recognized escapes:
\d
current day
\l
name of this tty
\m
machine architecture (uname -m)
\n
machine's network node hostname (uname -n)
\o
domain name of this system
\r
release number of operating system (uname -r)
\t
current time
\s
operating system name (uname -s)
\u
number of users currently logged in
\U
same as \u except it is suffixed with "user" or "users" (eg. "1
user" or "10 users")
\v
operating system version and build date (uname -v)
noesc
Turns off escape code parsing.
issue=issue-file-name
The file to output if not using the default.
Only the auth module type is provided.
PAM_BUF_ERR

PAM_IGNORE
The prompt was already changed.
PAM_SERVICE_ERR

PAM_SUCCESS

Add the following line to /etc/pam.d/login to set the user specific
issue at login:
