Smiley noted, but do you really think this? In many cases it is

distributed system it is the only way I know of to use LDAP centralized

I agree with Bruce. PAM does have its issues, but if you want to use
LDAP and Kerberos, it is your only option.
BTW - I would also agree that PAM is and never should be LFS material.
It is great where it is at.
