+<description>
+ <para>When Samba 3.0 is configured to enable PAM support
+ (i.e. --with-pam), this parameter will control whether or not Samba
+ should obey PAM's account and session management directives. The
+ default behavior is to use PAM for clear text authentication only
+ and to ignore any account or session management. Note that Samba
+ always ignores PAM for authentication in the case of <link linkend="ENCRYPTPASSWORDS">
+ <parameter moreinfo="none">encrypt passwords = yes</parameter></link>. The reason
+ is that PAM modules cannot support the challenge/response
+ authentication mechanism needed in the presence of SMB password encryption.
