pam_console_apply - set or revoke permissions for users at
the system console
SYNOPSIS
pam_console_apply [-r]
DESCRIPTION
pam_console_apply sets or resets permissions on devices in
the same manner as pam_console.
If /var/run/console.lock exists, pam_console_apply will
grant permissions to the user listed therein. If the lock
file does not exist, permissions are reset to those listed
in /etc/security/console.perms, which should be configured
to set permissions on devices so that root owns them.
ARGUMENTS
-r Signals pam_console_apply to reset permissions.
The default is to set permissions so that the user
listed in /var/run/console.lock has access to the
devices, and to reset permissions if no such file
exists.
FILES
/var/run/console.lock
