Again, the top of the system-auth file has comments saying it is
auto-generated and any changes made to it will be overwritten by
authconfig, which makes me hesitant to change the file, as the changes
may not stick. It seems your info contradicts the file's own
warnings, not saying you are wrong, but trying to find the right
answer compared to what the file itself says.
take a look at "man authconfig".
in particular the FILES section.
ls -l /etc/pam.d/system-auth*
authconfig modifies /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac, /etc/pam.d/system-auth is
a symlink to /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac.
rm -f /etc/pam.d/system-auth
cp /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac /etc/pam.d/system-auth
and edit away without fear of authconfig.
