      Before proceeding to read the rest of this document, it should be
      noted that the text assumes that certain files are placed in certain
      directories.  Where they have been specified, the conventions we adopt
      here for locating these files are those of the relevant RFC (RFC-86.0,
      see <a class="link" href="sag-see-also.html" title="Chapter 7. See also">bibliography"</a>). If you are
      using a distribution of Linux (or some other operating system) that
      supports PAM but chooses to distribute these files in a different way
      you should be careful when copying examples directly from the text.
    </p><p>
      As an example of the above, where it is explicit, the text assumes
      that PAM loadable object files (the
      <span class="emphasis"><em>modules</em></span>) are to be located in
      the following directory: <code class="filename">/lib/security/</code> or
      <code class="filename">/lib64/security</code> depending on the architecture.
      This is generally the location that seems to be compatible with the
      Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS). On Solaris, which has its own
      licensed version of PAM, and some other implementations of UN*X,
      these files can be found in <code class="filename">/usr/lib/security</code>.
      Please be careful to perform the necessary transcription when using
      the examples from the text.
