-SUMMARY:
-  pam_tally:
-
-        Maintains a count of attempted accesses, can reset count on success,
-                can deny access if too many attempts fail.
-
-        Options:
-
-                * onerr=[succeed|fail] (if something weird happens
-                        such as unable to open the file, what to do?)
-                * file=/where/to/keep/counts (default /var/log/faillog)
-
-        (auth)
-                * no_magic_root (root DOES increment counter. Use for
-                        daemon-based stuff, like telnet/rsh/login)
-                
-        (account)
-                * deny=n (deny access if tally for this user exceeds n;
-                        The presence of deny=n changes the default for 
-                        reset/no_reset to reset, unless the user trying to
-                        gain access is root and the no_magic_root option
-                        has NOT been specified.)
-                
-                * no_magic_root (access attempts by root DON'T ignore deny.
-                        Use this for daemon-based stuff, like telnet/rsh/login)
-                * even_deny_root_account (Root can become unavailable. BEWARE.
-                        Note that magic root trying to gain root bypasses this,
-                        but normal users can be locked out.)
-                
-                * reset (reset count to 0 on successful entry, even for
-                        magic root)
-                * no_reset (don't reset count on successful entry)
-                        This is the default unless deny exists and the
-                        user attempting access is NOT magic root.
-
-        Also checks to make sure that the list file is a plain
-        file and not world writable.

-BUGS:
-
-pam_tally is very dependant on getpw*(): a database of usernames
-would be much more flexible.
-
-The (4.0 Redhat) utilities seem to do funny things with uid, and I'm
-not wholly sure I understood what I should have been doing anyway so
-the `keep a count of current logins' bit has been #ifdef'd out and you
-can only reset the counter on successful authentication, for now.
