Description-en: create/join network namespaces at login
libpam-net implements two pam modules:
.
pam_newnet.so: users belonging to the newnet group get a new network namespace
at login. lo interface is down.
.
pam_usernet.so users belonging to the usernet group get their own network name
at login. If a network namespace having the same name as the username exists,
pam runs the user's shell in that namespace. If such a namespace does not
exist, it is created during the login process.
