** Description changed:

- Ubuntu Touch will soon have/now has the ability to set a PIN/password
- for the user. If the password is set, we should provide some protection
- against brute force password guessing since many users will choose to
- use PINs rather than proper passwords. This is required for devices for
- RTM, but not for the traditional Ubuntu desktop.
+ [Impact]
+ No method to configure PAM services used (hard-coded to "lightdm").

** Summary changed:

- please make use of pam_tally2 for Touch login and screenunlock
+ No method to configure PAM services

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
- No method to configure PAM services used (hard-coded to "lightdm").
+ No method to configure PAM services used (hard-coded to "lightdm"). This is 
required in some cases, e.g. when running Ubuntu on the phone we want to use a 
different PAM stack. By making this configurable the phone can have a package 
that overrides the default.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Set a different PAM stack in the LightDM configuration:
+  [SeatDefaults]
+  pam-service=custom-service
+ 2. Start LightDM
+ 3. Log in
+ Expected result:
+ PAM modules in "custom-service" are run, user is logged in.
+ Observed result:
+ PAM modules in "lightdm" are run, user is logged in. (feature not yet 
supported)
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Low, fix is just replacing hard-coded values with a configuration lookup. 
Tested with regression tests.

** Summary changed:

- No method to configure PAM services
+ Not able to configure PAM services
