This module maintains a count of attempted accesses, can
reset count on success, can deny access if too many attempts
fail.
</p><p>
pam_tally has several limitations, which are solved with
pam_tally2. For this reason pam_tally is deprecated and
will be removed in a future release.
</p><p>
pam_tally comes in two parts:
<span class="emphasis"><em>pam_tally.so</em></span> and
<span class="command"><strong>pam_tally</strong></span>. The former is the PAM module and
the latter, a stand-alone program. <span class="command"><strong>pam_tally</strong></span>
is an (optional) application which can be used to interrogate and
manipulate the counter file. It can display users' counts, set
individual counts, or clear all counts. Setting artificially high
counts may be useful for blocking users without changing their
passwords. For example, one might find it useful to clear all counts
every midnight from a cron job. The
<span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">faillog</span>(8)</span> command can be used instead of pam_tally to to
maintain the counter file.
</p><p>
Normally, failed attempts to access <span class="emphasis"><em>root</em></span> will
<span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> cause the root account to become
blocked, to prevent denial-of-service: if your users aren't given
shell accounts and root may only login via <span class="command"><strong>su</strong></span> or
at the machine console (not telnet/rsh, etc), this is safe.

This can be used for <span class="emphasis"><em>auth</em></span> and

<code class="option">onerr=[<em class="replaceable"><code>fail</code></em>|<em class="replaceable"><code>succeed</code></em>]</code>

If something weird happens (like unable to open the file),

is given, else with the corresponding PAM error code.

File where to keep counts. Default is

Will log the user name into the system log if the user is not found.

Don't print informative messages.

<code class="option">no_log_info</code>

Don't log informative messages via <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">syslog</span>(3)</span>.
</p></dd></dl></div></dd><dt><span class="term">
AUTH OPTIONS
</span></dt><dd><p>
Authentication phase first checks if user should be denied
access and if not it increments attempted login counter. Then
on call to <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">pam_setcred</span>(3)</span> it resets the attempts counter.
</p><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">deny=<em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em></code>

Deny access if tally for this user exceeds
<em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em>.

<code class="option">lock_time=<em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em></code>

Always deny for <em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em> seconds
after failed attempt.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">unlock_time=<em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em></code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Allow access after <em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em> seconds
after failed attempt. If this option is used the user will
be locked out for the specified amount of time after he
exceeded his maximum allowed attempts. Otherwise the
account is locked until the lock is removed by a manual
intervention of the system administrator.

<code class="option">magic_root</code>

If the module is invoked by a user with uid=0 the
counter is not incremented. The sysadmin should use this
for user launched services, like <span class="command"><strong>su</strong></span>,
otherwise this argument should be omitted.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">no_lock_time</code>

Do not use the .fail_locktime field in

Don't reset count on successful entry, only decrement.

Root account can become unavailable.

If <code class="filename">/var/log/faillog</code> contains a non-zero

ACCOUNT OPTIONS
</span></dt><dd><p>
Account phase resets attempts counter if the user is
<span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> magic root.
This phase can be used optionally for services which don't call
<span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">pam_setcred</span>(3)</span> correctly or if the reset should be done regardless
of the failure of the account phase of other modules.
