<para>
More flexible than the single configuration file is it to
configure libpam via the contents of the
<filename>/etc/pam.d/</filename> directory. In this case the
directory is filled with files each of which has a filename
equal to a service-name (in lower-case): it is the personal
configuration file for the named service.
</para>
<para>
The syntax of each file in /etc/pam.d/ is similar to that of the
<filename>/etc/pam.conf</filename> file and is made up of lines
of the following form:
</para>
<programlisting>
type control module-path module-arguments
</programlisting>
<para>
The only difference being that the service-name is not present. The
service-name is of course the name of the given configuration file.
For example, <filename>/etc/pam.d/login</filename> contains the
configuration for the <emphasis remap="B">login</emphasis> service.
