Description Brian Harrington 2012-02-27 15:39:53 UTC 
Description of problem:

Actual results:

#
The pam_oddjob_mkhomedir module can be enabled using the system's authconfig command. For example:

This option can be used for both server and client machines post-installation. 

Expected results:

#
