.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP systemd-user-sessions.service is a service that controls user logins through [**pam\_nologin**(8)](/man/os/systemd/pam_nologin.8). After basic system initialization is complete, it removes /run/nologin, thus permitting logins. Before system shutdown, it creates /run/nologin, thus prohibiting further logins.
