I think you need to edit the file yourself, but its warning you that if
you run auth-config any changs you make will be lost, since it regenerates
the file rather than modifying it.

The comments in the top of the file say:
#%PAM-1.0
# This file is auto-generated.
# User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.
I have tested this and find that it is true. I have tried running
authconfig and
system-config-authentication. I have been unsuccessful in getting them to
add
lines like this.
Could someone point me to the documentation that will explain how to add
these lines to auth-config? Is it as simple as not using the configuration
tools?
Thanks!
