Hi, i would like to run a script when somebody logs in using PAM authentication via the webui. You can do this by adding a line to a pam configuration file in /etc/pam.d/ , But there seems to be no proxmox related file, what pam config file does the webui use for logging in users?

PVE will use "proxmox-ve-auth" as service name. so you can either create and configure that, or it will fall back to the default one.
 
So i can make a file named "proxmox-ve-auth" in "/etc/pam.d/" and it will use that file?
 
I just created the file "proxmox-ve-auth" by doing cp other proxmox-ve-auth because i read this line: "If the file does not exist, pam will use `/etc/pam.d/other`". I added my script line but it didn't run. Any ideas why it didn't?
 
what do you mean with "added my script line"?
 
I have to add a line of text to the pam file that will run a script, here's the line: session optional pam_exec.so seteuid /path/to/script.sh

Thank you for the quick replies.
 
PVE doesn't open a session (as there are no sessions in PVE).. it only does authentication and account validation.
 
So i'm guessing auth optional pam_exec.so seteuid /path/to/script.sh would work then?
 
edit at the top and select the prefix ;)
