* Package name : libpam-net Version : 0.1 Upstream Author : Renzo Davoli, Eduard Caizer University of Bologna <i...@v2.cs.unibo.it> * URL : https://github.com/rd235/libpam-net * License : GPL2 Programming Lang: C Description : create/join network namespaces at login libpam-net allows users to be joined into a network-namespace at login. It implements two pam modules: . - pam_newnet.so: users belonging to the 'newnet' group get a new network namespace at login. . - pam_usernet.so users belonging to the 'usernet' group get their own network namespace at login. If a network namespace having the same name as the username exists, pam runs the user shell in that namespace. If such a namespace does not exist, it is created during the login process. I belive such functionality does not currently exist in Debian. It can be quite useful however. For example I use it to have a seperate users who's network access is always forced though a VPN or Tor. I have started to package libpam-net here: https://salsa.debian.org/dxld-guest/libpam-net I plan on maintaining this package myself, I do not expect this to be too much work as the it is extremely simple (300 LoC). I need a sponsor.
