PAM - Pluggable Authentication Module

PAM Modules are modules that can hook up to different applications that implement PAM patterns, such as SSH.


Setup

To begin development, some configuration may need to be done to some of the PAM configuration files. For this example I will use SSH.

These files are located

 /etc/pam.d/sshd

Tip* For SSH, if you need to conversate, turn on Challenge Response in the SSHD config file.

 /etc/ssh/sshd_config
 Line: ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
