package itself must be installed as well as something for logging into the system that supports PAM. The login
bundled with busybox
does not support PAM. Instead, one of the following may be used:
greetd
plus any greeter (agretty
looks like login). See (greetd's website for more information).login(1)

ulimit
permissions can be changed via /etc/security/limits.conf
. These will only apply if a PAM-compatible tool is used for logging in (as indicated above).
