Finding pam module












0















I've started to read the documentation on pam and it says that the available modules should be stored in /lib/security or /lib/security64 for the examples they give to be applicable. My problem is that none of those directories contain the security subdirectory. However I do find the configuration file /etc/security/pam.conf and directory /etc/security/pam.d. Is there another place i can look for the modules? Maybe I dont need to be to concerned with them I honestly dont know since I have'nt gotten very far into the documentation yet but I would like to be able to modify my authentications if so just for the fun of it. I'm running kubuntu 18.04.1.

          The PAM modules themselves are shared object (.so) files whose location on Multiarch systems follows the same conventions as other libraries, depending on your procesor architecture i.e.



          /lib/i386-linux-gnu
          /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
          /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
          /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu


          Ex.



          $ ls /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/security/
          pam_access.so pam_group.so pam_namespace.so pam_systemd.so
          pam_cifscreds.so pam_issue.so pam_nologin.so pam_tally2.so
          pam_debug.so pam_keyinit.so pam_permit.so pam_tally.so
          pam_deny.so pam_kwallet5.so pam_pwhistory.so pam_time.so
          pam_echo.so pam_lastlog.so pam_rhosts.so pam_timestamp.so
