Im playing with PAM and USB key authentication and it works, very well.
Ive documented the proccess and will pass the comments on in a technical
meet when we next have one. Overall its pretty cool  however it works to
well nd PAM forces the login to be applied ot everyone. whichmeans all
users of this pc need a usb key to authenticate. 

Id like some flexibility. Id like to be able to say use this PAM module
for logins on user accounts x,y,z and resort to efault PAM settings for
all oter users...

am i mad or is this possible ?

ive read

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/Linux-PAM-html/pam.html

and I cant see anything matching my thoughts... but who knows...
