[Bug 1348251] [NEW] please make use of pam_tally2 with lightdm-greeter

 

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu Touch will soon have/now has the ability to set a PIN/password
for the user. If the password is set, we should provide some protection
against brute force password guessing since many users will choose to
use PINs rather than proper passwords. This is required for devices for
RTM, but not for the traditional Ubuntu desktop.
