Before proceeding to read the rest of this document, it should be
noted that the text assumes that certain files are placed in certain
directories. Where they have been specified, the conventions we adopt
here for locating these files are those of the relevant RFC (RFC-86.0,
see <a class="link" href="sag-see-also.html" title="Chapter 7. See also">bibliography"</a>). If you are
using a distribution of Linux (or some other operating system) that
supports PAM but chooses to distribute these files in a different way
you should be careful when copying examples directly from the text.
</p><p>
As an example of the above, where it is explicit, the text assumes
that PAM loadable object files (the
<span class="emphasis"><em>modules</em></span>) are to be located in
the following directory: <code class="filename">/lib/security/</code> or
<code class="filename">/lib64/security</code> depending on the architecture.
This is generally the location that seems to be compatible with the
Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS). On Solaris, which has its own
licensed version of PAM, and some other implementations of UN*X,
these files can be found in <code class="filename">/usr/lib/security</code>.
Please be careful to perform the necessary transcription when using
the examples from the text.
