mkhomedir_helper
Helper binary that creates home directories
SYNOPSIS
' mkhomedir_helper 'u mkhomedir_helper { user }[ umask [ path-to -skel ]]
DESCRIPTION
mkhomedir_helper is a helper program for the pam_mkhomedir module that creates home directories and populates them with contents of the specified skel directory .
The default value of umask is 0022 and the default value of path-to -skel is /etc/skel .
The helper is separated from the module to not require direct access from login SELinux domains to the contents of user home directories . The SELinux domain transition happens when the module is executing the mkhomedir_helper .
The helper never touches home directories if they already exist .
