-FIXME
+The configured Login Module is executed for the following [[server:Terminal]] Server connections:
+   * All Telnet connections
+   * Unauthenticated SSH and RLogin connections
+This module is responsible for querying the user's login ID and initiating the login process.
+The name of the login module (by default, ''login'') is configured in [[util:SCFG]]->System->Loadable Modules->Login.
+The [[http://cvs.synchro.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/exec/login.js|default login module]] is ''[[dir:exec]]/login.js'' and supports the following configuration options in the ''[login]'' section of the ''[[dir:ctrl]]/[[config:modopts.ini]]'' file:
+^ Option ^ Default      ^ Description ^
+| email_passwords       | true  | Send forgotten passwords to users via [[server:mail|email (SMTP)]] |
+| confirm_email_address | true  | Requires user to confirm their email address before sending a forgotten password |
+| login_prompts         | 10    | Maximum number of login prompts to display before disconnecting |
+| inactive_hangup       | 30    | Seconds of dumb-terminal (e.g. non-ANSI) user/bot inactivity before disconnecting |
+| guest                 | true  | Display the "or Guest" login suggestion when a "Guest" user account exists |
+===== Customize =====
+If you choose to use a customized or entirely different login module, it is recommended that you use a different module name (not "login") and/or copy the login module to your ''[[dir:mods]]'' directory before modifying.
