At least on RedHat, the default pam-installations creates these two suid-binaries: -r-sr-xr-x 1 root root 15088 Nov 9 18:30 /sbin/pwdb_chkpwd* -r-sr-xr-x 1 root root 16824 Nov 9 18:30 /sbin/unix_chkpwd* which are "authentication proxies" used by pam_pwdb and pam_unix. Screen locking with user password in default RedHat installation would not work without them. I don't know if they are a only a RedHat invention. - Jani
