    Hy people,

    I am having a look at a configured pam login file, and i cant find enough
    information to understand what it all means, if any of you would be so kind
    to explain any line of the file that i paste:

    auth requisite pam_unix2.so nullok #set_secrpc
    auth required pam_securetty.so
    auth required pam_nologin.so
    #auth required pam_homecheck.so
    auth required pam_env.so
    auth required pam_mail.so
    account required pam_unix2.so
    password required pam_pwcheck.so nullok
    password required pam_unix2.so nullok use_first_pass use_authtok
    session required pam_unix2.so none # debug or trace
    session required pam_limits.so
    session optional pam_laus.so
    auth required /lib/security/pam_tally.so onerr=fail no_magic_root
    account required /lib/security/pam_tally.so deny=10 reset no_magic_root

    If u could also point me out some links that explain in detail the pam files
    configuration, i cant find anything usefull on the net.

    Thnx a LoT!!!!.

    Cya.
