A tool to select system authentication and identity sources from a list of supported profiles
Authselect is designed to be a replacement for authconfig (which is the default tool for this job on Fedora and RHEL based systems) but it takes a different approach to configure the system. Instead of letting the administrator build the PAM stack with a tool (which may potentially end up with a broken configuration), it would ship several tested stacks (profiles) that solve a use-case and are well tested and supported. At the same time, some obsolete features of authconfig would not be supported by authselect. This package contains commands for selecting system identity and authentication sources, and common library files for the authselect tool. Authselect will replace /usr/sbin/authconfig with a tool that will translate some of the authconfig calls into authselect calls. It provides only minimum backward compatibility and users are encouraged to migrate to authselect completely.
