PAM actually has a very flexible configuration language. The extended syntax (see section 4.1 of the System Administrators' Guide for the full details) lets you customize the logic in a particular configuration file to cover every case I could think of. The different options that each module takes, combined with the flexibility of the enhanced syntax, just makes it hard to parse and edit PAM configurations dependably in software. Nalin
