Can screensaver shutdown when password is wrong n times ?

Post by red-lichtie »

I would like my PC to shut down/power off, when the password is incorrectly entered 3 times in to the screen saver unlock window.

Is there a standard mechanism for this ? Something in PAM that would also cover the consoles ? Possibly in logind ?
