PAM_JAIL(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual PAM_JAIL(8)

pam_jail
Jail PAM module

[service-name] module-type control-flag pam_jail [arguments]

The jail service module for PAM put users into a jail derived from their home directory. If a user's home directory as specified in the passwd structure returned by getpwnam(3) contains the string “/./”, the user is put into the jail having the portion of the directory name to the left of the string “/./” as its root, and the portion to the right will be the current working directory inside the jail. Otherwise, the directories specified by the dir and cwd options (see below) are used.
Do not hold user ID 0 exempt from the jail requirement.
Report a failure if a root directory could not be derived from the user's home directory, and the dir option was not specified.
=directory
Specify the directory to chdir(2) into after a successful jail_attach(2) call.
=directory
Specify the root directory of the jail to use if one could not be derived from the user's home directory.
