libpam-mount 0.9.20-10 (powerpc binary) in ubuntu hoary
a PAM module that can mount volumes for a user session
This module is aimed at environments with SMB (Samba or Windows NT)
or NCP (Netware or Mars-NWE) servers that Unix users wish to access
transparently. It facilitates access to private volumes of these types
well. The module also supports mounting home directories using
loopback or dm-crypt encrypted filesystems.
.
o Every user can access his own volumes.
o The user needs to type the password just once (at login).
o The mounting process is transparent to the users.
o There is no need to keep the login passwords in any additional file.
o The volumes are unmounted upon logout, so it saves system resources,
avoiding the need of listing every possibly useful remote volume
in /etc/fstab or in an automount/
is also necessary for securing encrypted filesystems.
.
Libpam-mount "understands" SMB, NCP, and any type of filesystem that
can be mounted using the standard mount command. If someone has a
particular need for a different filesystem, feel free to ask to
include it and send patches.
