This module always lets root in; it lets other users in only if the file
/etc/nologin doesn't exist. In any case, if /etc/nologin exists, it's
contents are displayed to the user.
The default return value for this module is PAM_IGNORE, you can
override this with the successok module argument.
module services provided:
auth _authenticate and _setcred
account _acct_mgmt
optional arguments:
file=<alternative-nologin-pathname> - choose a different file
successok - return PAM_SUCCESS if no file
