PAM is implemented as a set of shared objects that are loaded and executed when a program needs to authenticate a user. Files for PAM are typically located in the ''/etc/pam.d'' directory. PAM must be carefully configured to secure system authentication. While this section covers some of PAM, please consult other PAM resources to fully understand the configuration capabilities. ubuntu1604/5/3.txt Last modified: 2017/05/06 15:41by Piotr Kłoczewski
