Linux traditionally relied upon password authentication based on passwords stored in the etc/passwords directory. However, many new authentication schemes have arisen, including smart cards and replacements for the etc/passwords file. PAM makes it easier to include authentication schemes as part of a Linux implementation. PAM is included in SourceLabs self-support offering for Linux.
