When a <span class="emphasis"><em>PAM</em></span> aware privilege granting application
is started, it activates its attachment to the PAM-API. This
activation performs a number of tasks, the most important being the
reading of the configuration file(s): <code class="filename">/etc/pam.conf</code>.
Alternatively, this may be the contents of the
<code class="filename">/etc/pam.d/</code> directory. The presence of this
directory will cause Linux-PAM to ignore
<code class="filename">/etc/pam.conf</code>.
</p><p>
These files list the <span class="emphasis"><em>PAM</em></span>s that will do the
authentication tasks required by this service, and the appropriate
behavior of the PAM-API in the event that individual
<span class="emphasis"><em>PAM</em></span>s fail.
