Automatic dismissal of greeter GUI upon PAM_SUCCESS
I'm trying to write a PAM module that automatically authenticates PAM_USER (based on external information) without interacting with the user through the greeter, but the user is always presented with a dialog even if the PAM conversation function is never called. They have to at least press "Return" to get past that dialog. It would be great if the greeter GUI was never presented (or was automatically dismissed) once pam_authenticate returns PAM_SUCCESS. The pam_conv() function is supposed to drive the GUI dialog, so if it's never called then logically we should never see it.
Is there a configuration option which would allow this?
