    Summary: PKCS #11 PAM Module and Login Tools
    Description: 
    This Linux-PAM login module allows a X.509 certificate based user login.
    The certificate and its dedicated private key are thereby accessed by
    means of an appropriate PKCS #11 module. For the verification of the
    user certificates, locally stored CA certificates as well as either
    online or locally accessible CRLs are used.
