6 <para>When Samba 3.0 is configured to enable PAM support
7 (i.e. --with-pam), this parameter will control whether or not Samba
8 should obey PAM's account and session management directives. The
9 default behavior is to use PAM for clear text authentication only
10 and to ignore any account or session management. Note that Samba
11 always ignores PAM for authentication in the case of <smbconfoption
12 name="encrypt passwords">yes</smbconfoption>. The reason
13 is that PAM modules cannot support the challenge/response
14 authentication mechanism needed in the presence of SMB password encryption.
