PAM_TTY_AUDIT(8)	       Linux-PAM Manual		      PAM_TTY_AUDIT(8)

NAME
       pam_tty_audit - Enable or disable TTY auditing for specified users

SYNOPSIS
       pam_tty_audit.so [disable=patterns] [enable=patterns]

DESCRIPTION
       The pam_tty_audit PAM module is used to enable or disable TTY auditing.
       By default, the kernel does not audit input on any TTY.

OPTIONS
       disable=patterns
	      For each user matching one of comma-separated glob patterns,
	      disable TTY auditing. This overrides any previous enable option
	      matchin the same user name on the command line.

       enable=patterns
	      For each user matching one of comma-separated glob patterns,
	      enable TTY auditing. This overrides any previous disable option
	      matching the same user name on the command line.

       open_only
	      Set the TTY audit flag when opening the session, but do not
	      restore it when closing the session. Using this option is
	      necessary for some services that don't fork() to run the
	      authenticated session, such as sudo.

MODULE SERVICES PROVIDED
       Only the session service is supported.

RETURN VALUES
       PAM_SESSION_ERR
	      Error reading or modifying the TTY audit flag. See the system
	      log for more details.

       PAM_SUCCESS
	      Success.

NOTES
       When TTY auditing is enabled, it is inherited by all processes started
       by that user. In particular, daemons restarted by an user will still
       have TTY auditing enabled, and audit TTY input even by other users
       unless auditing for these users is explicitly disabled. Therefore, it
       is recommended to use disable=* as the first option for most daemons
       using PAM.

EXAMPLES
       Audit all administrative actions.

       session	 required pam_tty_audit.so disable=* enable=root
