<title>Description</title>
<para><filename>systemd-ask-password-console.service</filename> is
a system service that queries the user for system passwords (such
as hard disk encryption keys and SSL certificate passphrases) on
the console. It is intended to be used during boot to ensure
proper handling of passwords necessary for boot.
<filename>systemd-ask-password-wall.service</filename> is a system
service that informs all logged in users for system passwords via
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>wall</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
It is intended to be used after boot to ensure that users are
properly notified.</para>
<para>See the <ulink
url="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PasswordAgents">
developer documentation</ulink> for more information about the
system password logic.</para>
<para>Note that these services invoke
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-tty-ask-password-agent</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
with either the <command>--watch --console</command> or
<command>--watch --wall</command> command line parameters.</para>
