This should not be confused with netgroups.\n\n•   a SELinux user name with %seuser syntax.\n\nThe recognized options are:\n\nexclusive\nOnly single login session will be allowed for the user and the user's processes will be\nkilled on logout.\n\nignore\nThe module will never return PAMSUCCESS status for the user. It will return PAMIGNORE\nif SELinux is in the enforcing mode, and PAMAUTHERR otherwise. It is useful if you want\nto support passwordless guest users and other confined users with passwords\nsimultaneously.\n\nThe lines which start with # character are comments and are ignored.\n",
