Hmm, so there are multiple ways to achieve this, but it really depends on what you are trying to do here. May I ask what kind of script you want to run for a user logging in? Also do you want this to run prviliged or unprivieleged? One possible way is probably to hook this into the PAM session setup/shutdown so that you can catch all types of logins with this. If you need to run a script rather than write a PAM script a quick google search reveals that pam-hooks might be the way to go? Anyway, I can make a better recommendation with a few hints on the intended usecases Lennart -- Lennart Poettering - Red Hat, Inc. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
