system-auth − Common configuration file for PAMified services
/etc/pam.d/system-auth
The purpose of this configuration file is to provide common configuration file for all applications and service daemons calling PAM library.
The system-auth configuration file is included from all individual service configuration files with the help of the include directive.
There should be no sufficient modules in the session part of system-auth file because individual services may add session modules after include of the system-auth file. Execution of these modules would be skipped if there were sufficient modules in system-auth file.
Conversely there should not be any modules after include directive in the individual service files in authaccount and password sections otherwise they could be bypassed.
None known.
