+ PAM configuration is very distribution specific. This is reason why upstream
+ util-linux package does not install any PAM config files.
+
+
+ Expected PAM config files:
+
+ login(1):
+ /etc/pam.d/remote - for -h command line option
+ /etc/pam.d/login - regular login
+
+
+ su(1):
+ /etc/pam.d/su-l - for --login command line option
+ /etc/pam.d/su - regular su
+
+
+ runuser(1):
+ /etc/pam.d/runuser-l - for --login command line option
+ /etc/pam.d/runuser - regular su
+
+ Note that runuser requires only "session" setting (and for example
+ "auth sufficient pam_rootok.so" dummy line).
+
+
+ chfn(1):
+ /etc/pam.d/chfn
+
+
+ chsh(1):
+ /etc/pam.d/chsh
