Hi
I am trying to lock users after 3 attempts and then set the timeout before they can log in again. I thought i could achieve this with
auth required pam_tally.so deny=3 unlock_time=600
in /etc/pam.d/system-auth but it seems to not be the case - I cant find a working config for this anywhere and i wonder if anyone has one they can share?
thanks
