Correction to comments. To correct this behaviour, the following line needs to be added to /etc/pam.d/system-auth and NOT /etc/pam.d/serviceconf: session optional /lib/security/$ISA/pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel umask=022 This needs to be added by the authentication configuration program upon service changes. I'll reassign this to authconfig as an RFE. |
