NAME
     pam_namespace_helper - Helper binary that creates home directories

SYNOPSIS
     pam_namespace_helper

DESCRIPTION
     pam_namespace_helper  is a helper program for the pam_namespace module that
     sets up a private namespace for a session	with  polyinstantiated	directo-
     ries.  The helper ensures that the namespace mount points exist before they
     are started to be used for the polyinstantiated directories.  Mount  points
     for home directories (lines with $HOME) are not created.

     pam_namespace_helper  should be run by systemd at system startup. It should
     also be run by the administrator after defining the polyinstantiated direc-
     tories but before enabling them.
