    <para>When Samba 3.0 is configured to enable PAM support
 
8
    (i.e. --with-pam), this parameter will control whether or not Samba
 
9
    should obey PAM's account and session management directives.  The 
 
10
    default behavior is to use PAM for clear text authentication only
 
11
    and to ignore any account or session management.  Note that Samba
 
12
    always ignores PAM for authentication in the case of <smbconfoption 
 
13
        name="encrypt passwords">yes</smbconfoption>.  The reason 
 
14
    is that PAM modules cannot support the challenge/response
 
15
    authentication mechanism needed in the presence of SMB password encryption.
