Hi
I occasionally need to setup a throw-away "games" user for someone to
play a bit with my laptop. Having a password is an annoyance in this
case.
So I thought I'll use PAM to disregard the password and accept the
authentication anyway:

This uses pam_listfile.so for that purpose. One remaining issue is that
GDM will prompt me for the password anyway (in the past it didn't if it
wasn't needed)
