If a new session keyring is created, it will install a link to the +\fBuser-keyring\fR(7) +in the session keyring so that keys common to the user will be automatically accessible through it\&. The session keyring of the invoking process will thenceforth be inherited by all its children unless they override it\&. +.PP +In order to allow other PAM modules to attach tokens to the keyring, this module provides both an +\fIauth\fR +(limited to +\fBpam_setcred\fR(3) +and a +\fIsession\fR +component\&. The session keyring is created in the module called\&. Moreover this module should be included as early as possible in a PAM configuration\&. +.PP +This module is intended primarily for use by login processes\&. Be aware that after the session keyring has been replaced, the old session keyring and the keys it contains will no longer be accessible\&. +.PP +This module should not, generally, be invoked by programs like +\fBsu\fR, since it is usually desirable for the key set to percolate through to the alternate context\&. The keys have their own permissions system to manage this\&. +.PP +The keyutils package is used to manipulate keys more directly\&.
