do I definitely identify an Entry PAM module for a
given service?
The mapping from a program to which PAM service name it uses is done by
the program, so you will need to determine it on a program-by-program basis.
In your example, telnet will invoke /bin/login, and that will use the
"login" PAM service.
If an application asks for a PAM service for which there's no specific
configuration then you will get the "other" service, although there is
no way for an application to know that this has happened(?).

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
