This is great. I didn’t know about pam_exec either.
The switch to a UDP packet for notification was a good call; since this is just an alerting mechanism, losing a login notification isn’t the end of the world.
That UDP datagram could possibly get lost (tough luck), but it’s not likely to in our LAN
Yes, of course, if I’m in a data center that might work (so yes, for work stuff) but if I’d like to do that with my (small) private fleet of servers all around different DCs, I think MQTT isn’t the best solution, I could live with UDP per se.

I like the idea in general, but this part :|
